Kunming-Chuxiong(Lucheng Town) Transportation: By Train & Bus

Chuxiong City is located in the middle of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, neighboring Kunming in the east, Dali in the west, Pu’er in the south and Panzhihua in the north. Lucheng Town is the political, economic and cultural center of Chuxiong city. There is no airport serving in Chuxiong now, so we recommend tourists to get here in other ways such as by trains, buses, car-rental, etc. At Kunming, there are plenty of trains and coaches getting to Chuxiong for your choice.
