Kunming

In the morning we make an excursion to the Golden Temple "Jindian", one of the most famous Taoist shrines in Yunnan Province also known as the Taihe Palace (Hall of Supreme Harmony), which is the largest copper temple in China. Among the interesting artifacts of the Golden Temple is a double-edged sword. Legend has it that this sword, which weighs more than 20 kilograms, is the magic sword of Zhen Wu, a Taoist deity, who guards Mingfeng Hill, on which the temple is located.

In the afternoon we transfer to the Western Hills, site of a great system of temples and alleyways carved into the towering rocks by a Taoist monk. Weather permitting, you will have wonderful views over Dian Chi Lake and Kunming City and its environs. Evening at your disposal.
