Did anyone go up to Dali recently? I heard the road is under construction. How many hours should I count on? And to Shaxi?

Yes, the road from Chuxiong to Dali is under construction, it will take 8-10 hours if not traffic jam, i advise you could choose the train, the soft sleeper is not expensive, just about 280rmb, but it is a little diffcult to buy it from train station, you could ask the tour agent, if you can not get it. Shaxi Village is in Jianchuan county of Dali, and could overnight in Shaxi, the hostel is ok, at least have water-clozet, that is all i know.
of couse, you allso choose the flight to Dali, you have to at least 8 hours by train.
Hi,
I really like Shaxi, I've been twice.
If you need some tips have a look on my website
On the Yunnan page choose "route du thé et des chevaux" mean the tea and horse road
