雲南 · 6 foundational guides
Getting into Yunnan: Kunming first, then the train.
Yunnan is a province. Kunming Changshui (KMG) is the usual gateway. Dali and Lijiang are separate cities; 12306 is the authority for trains. We do not invent journey times.
Getting around Yunnan: trains between cities, walking in old towns.
Prefer 12306 between Kunming, Dali and Lijiang. Old towns are compact and heavily visited. We do not print intercity fares.
Paying in Yunnan: the same national apps, a cash backup in small towns.
Alipay and WeChat Pay; official 2026 rule is a 3% fee above ¥200 (inclusive waiver at ¥200). Guesthouses are often phone-first. Register at every stop.
What to eat in Yunnan: rice noodles, and a real mushroom warning.
Crossing-the-bridge noodles, steam-pot chicken, flower cakes, rushan — dish types. Official health authorities warn about wild-mushroom poisoning. We do not invent restaurants.
Yunnan, honestly: distances, altitude, and souvenir old towns.
Kunming, Dali and Lijiang are separate cities. Altitude rises as you go north. Old towns are real and also commercial. No invented secret alleys.
A first five or six days in Yunnan (a shape, not a diary).
Kunming one or two nights, Dali two, Lijiang two. Shangri-La only with extra days and a slower ascent. No invented journey times.
