    China’s Yunnan Launches Online International Photo Competition

- Yunnan Province in SW China announces global photo competition on Instagram

- 5 prize winners to be offered Yunnan travel fund (after the Covid-19 pandemic)

- Yunnan extends a warm welcome to international visitors post-pandemic

Kunming, China / Feb. 1st China’s Yunnan Province launches a new global photo campaign themed "Wild Yunnan Through the Lens" on Instagram, encouraging visitors across the world to share photos of their beautiful memories when they journeyed through Yunnan.

The global photography competition, organized by travel.ifeng.com, will be officially launched on the Instagram account @travel_ifeng on February 1st 2021. Anyone can post photos of their Yunnan trip with the hashtag #wildyunnanthroughthelens to enter the online contest. The organizer will announce the winners on March 31st.

Yunnan, located in southwestern China, is one of the most popular tourism destinations in the country for international travelers. In 2019, global travelers made a total of 7.39 million trips to the province, which features an extraordinary mix of ethnic minority culture, fascinating landscapes and diverse eco-system. The province’s famous tourism destinations include Lijiang, Dali, Shangri-La and Xishuangbanna.

Yunnan ranks top in China for its biodiversity. From snowy mountains to tropical rainforests, the province hosts the greatest number of plant species in the country, providing a wonderland for a wide range of animal species. It is known as the “kingdom of fauna” and the “kingdom of flora”. There are many rare and endangered animals in Yunnan, many of which can’t be found elsewhere in China.

The global tourism industry has been hit hard by the pandemic, as international travel has been seriously limited since last year. The local tourism industry hopes the photo competition can remind global travelers of their own memories of Yunnan, share their experiences and help take care of the vulnerable ecosystem and our mother Earth.

The competition organizer, on behalf of the Yunnan tourism industry, also extends an invitation to visitors across the world to revisit this magical place. Yunnan is ready to host international tourists to enjoy the beauty there once international travel reopens.
