Wenshan is a county-level city in southeastern Yunnan province, China, and the seat of the Wenshan Zhuang and Miao Autonomous Prefecture. It was formerly called Kaihua and was a county until 2 December 2010, when the State Council upgraded it to a county-level city. It borders Yanshan County to the north, Xichou County to the southeast, Maguan County to the south and Mengzi City and Pingbian County to the west. The city has three subdistricts, seven towns, two townships and five ethnic townships. Its high plateau location gives a mild humid subtropical climate (Köppen Cwa) with short dry winters and warm rainy summers, and the area is known for the Wenshan Zinc Mine and for growing the medicinal plant sanchi.
