From Kunming to Lijiang, go straight on the expressway, pass Anning and Chuxiong, and get off at Dali exit. The fare for this section is 129 yuan. Dali to Lijiang take Dali secondary highway, free of charge. At present, the expressway from Dali to Lijiang is under construction.

It takes about three and a half to four hours to drive from Dali to Lijiang 129 yuan. Although Dali is not far from Lijiang, the mountain road from Eryuan to Jianchuan is difficult to walk, and traffic jams are often easy. This part will take four hours at the earliest. It takes about eight hours from Kunming to Lijiang. I left three days ago.
