Simple route map from Kunming to Ailao Mountain

💚Location: Jinshan Primeval Forest is located in Gasa Town, Xinping Yi and Dai Autonomous County, Yuxi City. Transportation: You can take a plane or high-speed rail to Kunming or Yuxi, and then there are buses from Kunming and Yuxi to Gasa Town. How to get around: 1️⃣ If possible, you can drive by yourself or rent a car after arriving in Gasa. This is more convenient and you can enjoy the scenery along the way to Ailao Mountain. Several scenic spots are on the same route, but there are more mountain roads. 2️⃣If you don’t have a driver’s license, walk a few hundred meters uphill from the intersection of Gaga Youth Hostel in Gasa Town and there is a bus to Jinshan Primeval Forest. You will come to a canteen on the way and you need to change buses. The fare is 10 yuan. If you don’t understand, you can ask more and the locals will enthusiastically tell you how to take the bus. Attraction route: First stop: Nan'en Waterfall (10 minutes), second stop: Clan Manor (30 minutes), third stop: Shimen Gorge (2-3 hours, if you are lucky you can meet a group of monkeys), fourth stop : Jinshan Primeval Forest (about 1.5 hours), the fifth stop: the Ancient Tea Horse Road in Zhenyuan County, with a glass plank road. You will stay at the Sea of ​​Clouds Viewing Area at night, and you can go home after viewing the Sea of ​​Clouds the next morning. 💚Simple summary: If you can drive yourself or rent a car, don’t take the bus. The bus time is very inconvenient. There is a big temperature difference in the mountains, mainly due to strong winds, so bring windproof clothing. Accommodation is very cheap, and there are many hotels and B&Bs priced at 1-300 yuan during non-peak season. You must eat gourmet yellow beef. #金山PrimitiveForest #Ailaoshan #Ailaoshan Route
