Southwest China's Kunming is famed for being "the City of Eternal Spring." The mild climate in the region allows flowers to bloom all year round. For locals, Kunming is what life should be like. The view of glistening Dianchi Lake under the vast blue sky looks like out of a fairy tale, not to mention the Dai people's beautiful traditional buildings on the shore. One may just pop into any sidewalk restaurant and always find delicious food. Nightlife is always fun at the various local bars that feature unique drinks on the menu. Even in the busy downtown area, nobody seems to be in a rush, as the vehicles will always give way to pedestrians. /VCG Photo
