Stone Forest ...
For our first full day as Hannah's parents, we got the oportunity to visit the famous Stone Forest. It's a scenic nature park about 60 miles outside of Kunming where there are all kinds of beautiful rock formations resulting from karst topography. In China, they call this place the first wonder of the world.

All of the rock formations were beautiful

Some were landscaped like these...
|
| |
|
But most were untouched as far as the eye could see |
Pausing for a quick picture |
|
|
In addition to the spires, there were pools...
|
and caves
like this one |
|
|
It was very rainy, but the mamas and babies were dry
|
A nice spot at the entrance of the park

One of the many awe-inspiring formations
|
The place was crawling with tourists
(mostly local) |
|
|
Can you guess what the warning sign says?
|
A beautiful pagoda

|
Another pagoda was perched up high on a rock |
Our new friends, Joel and Melissa...
