300 million tourists just visited China's stunning Xinjiang region. There's a side they didn't see

For years, Xinjiang had bristled under Beijing's rule, sometimes erupting into violence, which kept many domestic Chinese tourists away. Then it became infamous for some of the worst allegations of Chinese authoritarianism, from the detention of more than a million Uyghur Muslims in so-called "re-education camps", to claims of crimes against humanity, by the United Nations.

Kunming is a great city. You've got tourist towns like Dali and Lijiang which are beautiful. And then you have stunning scenery throughout, great for hiking.

Also there is Shangri-la which is alright I guess.

The weather is great and the food is excellent.
