A Brief Introduction to Kunming
Kunming (UN/LOCODE: CNKMG) is the capital and largest city of Yunnan Province in Southwest China. (http://en.kunming.cn)
It was important during World War II as a Chinese military center, American air base, and transport terminus for the Burma Road.
Kunming is located at an altitude of 1,900 m above sea level and at a latitude just north of the Tropic of Cancer. It covers an area of 21,473 square kilometres (8,291 sq mi) and its urban area covers 2,081 km². Kunming has population of 6,432,212 and is located at the northern edge of the large Lake Dian, surrounded by temples and lake-and-limestone hill landscapes.
"The City of Eternal Spring," Kunming sits at 6,100 feet on the fertile Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. A balmy climate gives the city a verdant charm - flower-filled parks, lush gardens and attractive temples dot the cityscape.
Its economic importance derives from its geographical position. Positioned near the border with Southeastern Asian countries, serving as a transportation hub in Southwest China, linking by rail to Vietnam and by road to Burma and Laos. Though having a nearly 2,400 year history, its modern prosperity dates only from 1910, when the railroad from Hanoi was built.
Kunming has been designated a special tourism center and as such sports a proliferation of high-rises and luxury hotels.
