Introduction

Dama Kan Village is located in Dongchuan District of Kunming City, about 196.3 kilometers away from the city center, which takes about 2.5 hours by car. Before and after sunrise, standing on the high slope beside the road, one can overlook the village full of red soil hills. The smoke of the village rises, and the poplar trees shine with golden light under the sunshine. This peaceful and beautiful rural scenery is refreshing. In addition, from different angles, one can appreciate the colorful slopes and the splendid garden, both of which offer a view of the vast and undulating mountain slope.
