The 7th Cloudburst in Kunming that Day

Summertime is the rainy season in Kunming, the capital of the Chinese province Yunnan. Nevertheless I enjoyed the two summers I spent there very much. Most of the time the sun is shining just the same, and the temperatures are very mild, because this far south city is located at an elevation of 1,890 metres (6,200 feet). They rarely exceed 30°C (86°F), whereas the heat in the rest of China becomes absolutely unbearable in the summer months.
