Jianshui is without any doubt the most beautiful city in South Yunnan. 210km away from Kunming and roughly located between the capital of Yunnan and Yuanyang, Jianshui may look at a first sight similar to any other Chinese town, with some modern buildings and busy streets. But Jianshui keep a village atmosphere, with old streets and some traditional houses, located all around the city, and especially around the Chaoyang Gateway Arch in Jianshui Old Quarter. Confucius Temple, right in the center, is the second biggest temple dedicated to Confucius in China. Worth to check are also the Zhu Family Garden (where we advise you to stay overnight), Zhang Family Garden out of town located in the lovely Tuanshan village. All those attractions make Jianshui an ideal stopover between Kunming and Yuanyang.
