Kunming, Yunnan Minority Village - China Travel Channel
The Yunnan Minority Village (云南民族村 Yunnan Minzu Cun) is on the northeastern shore of the Dian Lake in Kunming. 21 national minority groups live in Yunnan. In order to make the customs, traditions and living habits of these minorities accessible to a wider segment of the population, the Yunnan Nationalities Village was built. Here, members of minority groups can present their way of life. A wide variety of customs and traditions are explained.
For instance, it was the custom among the Wa people that following a good harvest, it was requested that the head of a man with a long beard be placed at the village entrance. Today a buffalo head is used instead.
Among the Bai peoples, houses were built facing east, whereas in the rest of China the custom was to build houses facing south. Village squares were often built as a symbolic calendar.
In the Yunnan Minority Village, many folk dances and song presentations are offered. For the Yi nationality, the tiger is sacred. This can be seen on hat coverings or the Yi’s main village square.

Das Yunnan Nationalitätendorf liegt am Nordostufer des Dian-Sees in Kunming. Am Eingang werden die Besucher mit traditionellen Tänzen begrüßt. In der Provinz Yunnan leben einundzwanzig nationale Minderheiten. Um die Sitten, Bräuche und Lebensgewohnheiten dieser Minderheiten einer breiteren Bevölkerungsschicht zugänglich zu machen, hat man ein “Nationalitätendorf” gebaut. Angehörige der diversen Minderheiten präsentieren das ursprüngliche Leben. Unterschiedlichste Sitten und Gebräuche werden erläutert.
So war es bei den Wa Brauch, zur Erbittung einer guten Ernte, den Kopf eines Mannes mit langem Bart am Dorfeingang abzulegen. Heute erfüllt ein Büffelkopf diese Aufgabe.
Die Bai bauen ihre Häuser mit dem Eingang nach Osten, während es in China Brauch war die Häuser nach Süden auszurichten. Dorfplätze wurden oft als symbolischer Kalender gebaut.
Dorfbewohner bieten des Öfteren Volkstänze und Gesänge dar. Für die Yi-Nationalität ist der Tiger heilig, was an Hutbedeckungen oder am Hauptplatz der Yi erkenntlich ist.

Kunming, Yunnan, Shilin Stone Forest - China Travel Channel
The Shilin Stone Forest - 石林 - or Shilin Yizu Zizhixian - 石林彝 族 自治县 - located southeast of Kunming is a highlight for all visitors.
Shilin Yi Autonomous County, formerly called Lunan County, is home to the Yi nationality and under the jurisdiction of Kunming , the provincial capital of Yunnan in China. The bizarre formations of the Stone Forrest stretch across 24,000 hectares. 80 hectares of the Stone Forrest have been developed for tourists. 270 million years ago, sediment settled in the sea. Later the sediments were lifted tectonically and the soft layers were eroded by wind and water. The limestone formations reach a height of 98 ft.
Since 2007, two parts of the Stone Forest - the Naigu Stone Forest and the Suogeyi Village - belong to the UNESCO World Heritage Sites as part of the South China Karst.

The Dai People in Yunnan by AsiaHarvest
Dai was one of Ethinc group in China mostly believe in Buddhism.
Kunming, Yunnan, Ethnic Village, by Wild China Guide.
Southwest China includes Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Guangxi provinces and Chongqing municipality. It had long been the Wild, Wild West of China dated back to 221 BC, and people who lived here had long been called as Xinan Yi , literally, southwestern foreigners or barbarians.
The faraway distance to China central inland and the complicated geographic conditions made this mountain-locked corner a remote, underdeveloped region and even nowadays, a less-developed region in China, in the meantime, created a variety of spectacular landscapes and rich, colorful, unique ethnic histories and cultures.
Along the long river of history, traces of the ancient Southern Silk Road & Tea-horse Caravan Road have been disappearing in high mountains and deep valleys, while the Burma Road built in WWII still serves the people...Great changes happened and happens everyday in Southwest China, there is already so much being explored, and still, so much waiting to be explored...
Through our website, we hope we can help you to discover this part of China a little deeper, a little wilder, a little much easier, and a little bit more fun. We wish you have a great journey!

Left Foot Dance of the Yi People 2 - Greenlake Park in Kunming - June 26, 2016
This is a regular song and dance gathering of the Yi people in a public park in Kunming, Yunnan Province. Three different large circles were going simultaneously, each with their own melodies and leading musicians. I was told these are Yi people from adjacent Chuxiong County who now reside in Kunming. Chuxiong is known as one of heartlands of Yi culture in Yunnan Province. Their most characteristic instrument is the octagonal and colorful xian zi, which simply means the strings.
