Through the author's unique perspective and lens, the book offers an intimate and comprehensive portrait of Kunming in the 1980s—a city poised on the brink of monumental change.

Within these pages, the soul of "Old Kunming" is meticulously captured. We encounter the resilient spirit of the Kunming people in their daily lives, wander through now-vanished streetscapes, and observe the architectural landmarks that once defined the city's character. The hum of local factories and the vibrant energy of public gatherings are frozen in time, providing a tangible connection to the rhythms of the past. More than just a collection of memories, this work is a vital historical document.

Fully illustrated in black & white photos, text in Chinese.
