🇨🇳 Kunming, China – The City of Eternal Spring
Kunming, China
Kunming, capital of Yunnan Province, is known as the City of Eternal Spring for its mild climate and year-round blooms. A strategic crossroads in Southwest China, it serves as a gateway to Southeast Asia and a hub for trade, culture, and innovation.
Home to many ethnic minority groups, Kunming’s diversity enriches its identity as a city of cultural fusion, sustainability, and global progress. In 1986, Mayor Federico Peña signed the agreement making Kunming Denver’s 8th Sister City.
