Located at an elevation of 1890 meters (about 6000 feet) in the heart of Yunnan Province in Southwest China, Kunming is known throughout China as the "City of Eternal Spring," owing to it's mild climate year round. Kunming is home to many of EducAsian's programs including our very popular Homestay Program that allows students to live with a Chinese family.
