You can fly to Kunming and then take a bus or hire a car to get to Yuanyang. I met a guy who flew to Kunming and then drove from there. It's a bit of a journey but worth it!
How long should I stay in Yuanyang?
I'd recommend at least a couple of days to fully appreciate the beauty of the rice terraces and the culture of the Hani people. One of the guys I met is staying for 26 days!
What's the best time to visit Yuanyang?
The scenery changes throughout the year. Spring is misty, summer is lush, autumn is golden, and winter is shimmering silver. So, it really depends on what kind of scenery you prefer!
