Chinese Flag Shilin Stone Forest Park Chinese Flag

Shilin Stone Forest  lies about 100 km east of Kunming and is a one day trip. 

The Park is a labyrinth of grey limestone towers reaching heights of some 30 metres. 

It has been known since the days of the Ming Dynasty ( 1368-1644 A.D. ) as the " First Wonder of the World ".

Walkways meander through the weird rock formations. 

Sani tribespeople from nearby villages sell handicrafts and offer their services as guides.
