Dounan Flower Market in Kunming, in Southwest China's Yunnan province, is Asia's largest fresh-cut flower market, with daily trading in thousands of types of flowers and hundreds of millions of stems sold each year.
In July, Swiss travel bloggers Sam Schaer and Jenny Brunner found themselves wandering through this vibrant sea of blooms. Taking on the role of "Dounan Challengers", they were each given just 100 yuan ($13.9) to barter their way to their favorite flowers. Just how many blooms will they take home?
