Kunming to Chengjiang

Starting on Tuodong Rd, outside the Da Zhen Hotel, and continuing with the morning commute of slow and safe paced motorbikes, the December Kunming sunrise, like the sleepy traffic, rises at a comfortable and civilised 7.00am.

A mostly flat road, passing through Guandu Village, with a designated cycle path Chengjiang sits about 60kms from Dong Feng Square. Effectively an extension of the urban area, Chengjiang is a developed metropolis that sits on the outskirts of Kunming.

Chengjiang is planted on the valley trough, offering a magnificent downhill approach when travelling from Kunming.
