Dounan Flower Market in Kunming, Yunnan province—the largest fresh-cut flower trading hub in Asia—handles thousands of flower varieties daily and sells hundreds of millions of stems each year.

Swiss travel bloggers Samuel Schaer and Jenny Brunner visited the vibrant market to take on a unique challenge: selecting their favorite blooms with only 100 yuan (approximately $14). Immersed in a sea of flowers, they experienced the local charm of bargaining and discovered just how much beauty and romance a small budget can afford.
