China's prosperous urban middle class has a new enthusiasm for second homes like this Five Star development near Kunming.
In June 2009, Kunming was the venue for the SACC Fair. Like so much in China these days it was staged on a grand scale.
The gardens in the grounds that surround Kunming's Golden Temple are well worth a visit in their own right as these photos from Spring 2009 show.
A visit to the temple complex at Yuxi in Yunnan is a popular day trip from Kunming. Well worth a visit (or two) as these photos from 2004 and 2005 show.

June 2011 and Kunming plays host to not one but two major trade fairs:
The 19th China Import & Export Fair, Kunming and the 4th South Asian Countries Trade Fair.
