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.

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!!!

Yunnan reopens 13 international border crossings

Very confusing article!!!
Where does one get the visa? At the Consulate or are they arrival visas issues at the border?
Getting Away: Shuanglang
Posted byA toll gate is still under construction that is just 100 meters from the main road into town. I took a picture of the last house standing in the path of the toll road and the owners are still hanging on although half their home has already been demolished. There are new hotels everywhere so there is no need to make reservations. Prices vary from 100 Yuan to as crazy as 780 per night on the shore near the port to Nan Zhao Island. Shuang Lang is already NOT what it used to be and the people are changing quickly. I saw at least 10 bike and scooter rental shops along the 3 km main road.
