Thanks for loving this. i love the Meili snow mountain range & revisited last autumn enroute to tibet. It's a beautiful route & if u r interested, check out my slideshows "2008 enroute Yunnan-Tibet" parts 1&2 under my youtube channel.

i'm sure you'll find yr Shangrila one day too.

My FB acct is probably defunct my now due inactivity :) u can continue to leave me msgs here! :)

@loveyunnan Hi I plan to visit Yunnan and enroute to Tibet, what transport did you take from Shangrila to tibet?

[loveyunnan]

@pigcanfly007

hi, if you are a citizen of China or has proper residence permits and on a budget, you can travel by public buses all the way from shangrila to Lhasa, but if you are a foreign traveler, then you'll have to engage a travel agent in shangrila(Zhongdian) who will get you the Tibet Travel Permit, supply a car/land cruiser plus a mandatory guide for your entry into the tibetan region.Check points are situated from Mangkang onwards so it's not too easy to try to sneak w/o permits.

To erictjie: i'm sorry for the late reply. It's easy to travel around in Yunnan even by public transport if you are able to read chinese, or else plenty of travel agencies organise local tours in Kunming, Dali, Lijiang and Zhongdian Depending on how much time u have, personally i would recommend Lugu Lake , the Meili Snow Mountains, the Yuanyang rice terraces as a must see, Yunnan has many other beautiful places & their minority tribes are a draw. Get a guide book and check them out.

@loveyunnan Thanks for your reply, I am a Singapore Chinese will there check on me if I look like them? :)

My alternative route would be from Lijiang > DaoCheng Yading> Chengdu, is it easy to take a bus route?

I never give any comments in YouTube so far until I found this video and I love it ! Now here I am ... :)

Your photos are awesome, I will also go there, to China from north to south, also until I find my Shangri-La there ... :) I will definitely visit the 3 places that you mentioned before ... :)

Do you have any FaceBook account may be ? :) I myself like to do independent travelling to anywhere ... any place ... :)

Thanx for sharing the video ... :)

Bring a Lonely Planet and you'll be fine (I had "Southwest China").

For budget rooms, go to Kevin's Trekker Inn in Shangri-la, it's really nice and they're very friendly and helpful. Rent a bike and cycle around. If you want the real adventure, go to Yubeng village near Deqin. The driving was a quite scary though haha!
