Photo: Faux-Minorities?

Many of the women in this small-town market on our way out of Yunnan were dressed like the ethnic minorities we've seen elsewhere in the province, but we were told everyone was Han Chinese. Either someone gave us incorrect information (which happens all the time), or these people are impostors!

Photo: It’s Something

Finally, we come across a man wearing something besides Western-style clothes! Although, having no other reference points, I have no idea whether he is Hani (哈尼族), Yi (彝族) or Yao (瑤族). Given that I saw him in the Lvchun (綠春) market, I'd bet Hani though.

A man attempts to hold his piglets at bay while waiting for a customer in the Lvchun (綠春) market. The two-month-old piglets sell for 50 yuan ($7.30) a head.

Photo: Farewell, Piglet!

A Hani woman takes a newly purchased Piglet home from the market in Lvchun (綠春), Yunnan. The piglets, which are two months old, sell for 50 yuan a head, while the six-month-old adults sell for 200 yuan. Regardless of the age, they all scream bloody murder.
