The Heart of China

Great golf awaits in Yunnan province

Heavenly Lijiang: in the Old TownORIENTATION

Dragonair operates nine direct flights per week from Hong Kong to Kunming (2hrs 30mins). There are no direct flights to Lijiang from Hong Kong at present; connect through Kunming with China Eastern Airlines (40mins). Alternatively, you can fly direct to both cities direct from Shenzhen International Airport.

WHEN TO GO

Although golf is certainly playable year-round in Kunming, May through July is the ultimate time when temperatures averages in the mid-twenties; Lijiang, at 10,000 feet above sea level, is a few degrees cooler. Avoid golfing in Lijiang in the late summer when Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is inevitably shrouded in mist and the chance of a snow flurry is high.
