Liuku is in [North West Yunnan].

[edit] Understand

Liuku is not a tourist destination. It is a transport hub that is necessary to pass through to head north up the Nujiang valley. This city, however, is very clean and pleasant. It is a relaxing place to stop over for a few days.

[edit] Get in

By Bus

Busses run between Liuku and Gongshan, Kunming and Xiaguan. Busses also run north to Bingzhongluo, but the road is still a no-through road, so after seeing Bingzhongluo you must back track to Liuku. The bus station is a little out of the centre of town (around 10-15 yuan in a taxi), but tickets can be bought prior to departure in a small shop behind the Mingzheng hotel.

[edit] Get around

Taxi's and walk, the city is not too large.

[edit][add listing] See

A pathway runs up the hill from the foot bridge and along the top, you can get a great view of the city. This path is easy to find as it is illuminated with neon lights at night. The riverside is quite busy at night, take a walk to see the locals dancing or to have a drink at one of the many bars.

Bingzhongluo

Busses run from Liuku to Bingzhongluo twice a day (7:20am and midday). The bus ride will be nine hours, along bumpy roads and cliff faces. Busses will often be small and crampt. The scenery, however, is beautiful. Bingzhongluo is a must see for nature lovers and hikers.
