Forums > Travel Yunnan > Shaxi from Qiantou The new highway from Dali or Lijiang can take you to Jian Chuan where you can visit the 1000 Lion Mountain, Jian Chuan Old Town, Shaxi Old Town, and Stone Treasure Mount (Shi Bao Shan).
You can rent a taxi from Jianchuan for 200 Yuan. The taxi will take you to all 3 temples in Stone Treasure Mount and bring you back to Jianchuan. - You can also do the entire loop for 250 Yuan. Jianchuan to Shi Bao Shan then on to Shaxi and then back to Jianchuan.
I recommend you stay an extra day and climb 1000 Lion Mountain. I really like this place.

Forums > Travel Yunnan > Shaxi from Qiantou 桥头 qiaotou - is NOT the same as Qiantou.
Do you mean the Qiaotou in Hu Tiao Xia in Shan Gri La in Diqing? Near Tiger Leaping Gorge.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hutiaoxia_Town
Tiger Leaping Gorge is at the border between Lijiang and Diqing. If this is where you are then follow the advice given to you above by Voltaire.
Forums > Travel Yunnan > Shaxi from Qiantou If you gave us the chinese would be most helpful.
If you told us where it is would be most helpful.
Is it in Dali or Lijiang or Sichuan, etc?
Most people know where Jianchuan and Shaxi is but most people have no idea what/where Qiantou is.
Forums > Travel Yunnan > Beijing by train huoche.911cha.com/Z162.html - Did I miss something or did I include this link in my previous post.
I think checking the train website I posted above will generate more speedy and accurate results rather than coming to ask this same question in this forum. It is a great website to save to your favorites.
However, if feeling bored and lonely because of lack of friends or spouse (social interaction), I guess this is probably the best way to garner some attention.
This thread is about the train schedule to Beijing. Stay on topic and stop. . . Haha!!!

Chinese consumers of rare animals now face prison
发布者I have no idea where this little fellow came from. He came from under some bushes near the entrance to our apartment. Maybe someone was keeping him in a garage and he got away or he was released from fear of getting caught.
Zhiziluo: Yunnan's mountaintop ghost town
发布者I was here in 2009. Actually the best way to get there is to go from Dali or Baoshan. When you arrive in Liuku you can take a bus to Pihe. In Pihe you can rent a minivan to take you up to the top of the hill. This will save you a lot of money because the distance from Pihe is much shorter then from Liuku.
Chinese academic ponders globe-spanning railways
发布者Researchers at Southwest Jiaotong University in China are developing (as of 2010) a vactrain to reach speeds of 1,000 km/h (620 mph). They say the technology can be put into operation in 10 years.
These trains have been in use for many years in the DUMB found in the US.
Chinese consumers of rare animals now face prison
发布者I told my wife to call the police because I remember reading this article. She called the police and a few minutes later, a woman from the Rare animal protection Bureau called my wife. The police arrived and took the critter away before my neighbor got his grubby hands on it.
The woman from the Protection Bureau called again and told my wife that they would pick up the little critter the next morning from the police station.
Apparantly, someone from the police station called the protection Bureau. I was surprised my wife got the call and also surprised that she told us what she was going to do.
This is the number of the woman (LIU) from the protection Bureau who called my wife - 18082722065.
Chinese consumers of rare animals now face prison
发布者A few minutes ago I saw one of these little beasts in my residential quarter. We called the police immediately so they can come pick him up. I had a arguement with someone in my residential quarter who was trying to take him away in a bag before the police arrived.
