With its splendid colors emanating from the rich deposits of iron and aluminum held in the soil with the help of the local warm and moist climate, the renowned red lands in the Dongchuan District of Kunming city, Yunnan Province, largely occur at an altitude of between 1,800 and 2,600 meters, making it one of the region's most popular tourist destinations for photographers.
