People who've been to Yunnan, what's it like? The fungal diversity seems so fascinating and I'd love to see the ecological contrasts between their mountains and my local ones.

I don't want to do too much of an Orientalism here but Yunnan is maybe the most truly fantastical place in the real world, between the mountains, wildlife, people, history etc. Made all the more fantastic by the fact that 90% of Americans have never heard of it and probably think so Kung-fu movie mountain vistas and jungles are, like, an hour drive outside of Beijing or something and not halfway across the continent.
