This travel route is designed to educate people on the ethnic Mong [Hmong], their culture, language, and history. The travel route will be in Yunnan where it has most different ethnic minorities of Chinese nationality. We will see some of the most beautiful landscapes and many different groups of Mong in Southwest China. Their differences evolved due to migration, assimilation, and long time separations.
