This autumn, tourists and shutterbugs have flocked to the red lands in Kunming, Yunnan province to capture the area's breathtaking scenery. Dongchuan Red Land is the most typical and characteristic red land area on the Yunnan Laterite Plateau. The site has been called “a palette left by God,” with some comparing the area's magnificence and grandeur to that of the red lands in Rio de Janeiro. The best time to capture the natural beauty is between September and December.
