Panlong District (simplified Chinese: 盘龙区; traditional Chinese: 盤龍區; pinyin: Pánlóng Qū) is one of seven districts of the prefecture-level city of Kunming, the capital of Yunnan Province, Southwest China.

Administrative divisions

Panlong District is divided to 12 subdistricts:

Tuodong (拓东街道), Gulou (​鼓楼街道), Donghua (​东华街道), Lianmeng (​联盟街道), Jinchen (金辰街道), Qingyun (​青云街道), Longquan (​龙泉街道), Ciba (​茨坝街道), Shuanglong (​双龙街道), Songhua (​松华街道), Dianyuan (​滇源街道), Aziying (阿子营街道).

Demography

Panlong District stretches from Kunming's downtown area to the city's northern ring road. Recent boundary changes to accommodate the city's rapid growth have left the district with a population of around 700,000 people (as of 2006). Slightly more than half of them are permanent residents; 160,000 are rural migrants registered with the authorities as temporary residents, and a further 160,000 or so are ‘floating’ migrants with no formal registration in the locality. The migrants come from Yunnan's rural areas, as well as from Sichuan, Jiangsu, Hebei, Xinjiang and Guizhou.
