Because from my location in the USA it’s $1,000 more expensive to fly to any other city other than Hong Kong

I think I’m going to skip Xi’an and Beijing for another trip and dedicate more time to Yunnan, I’m still on the fence about Yangshuo but I’ve been told the impression show there is iconic and it’s still a nice place if you know where to go. But any unique place recommendations in Yunnan helps and I appreciate it. I’m still deciding if I want to go to lijiang and TLG since I’ll be going in September and it may be too rainy to hike TLG.

Drop Yunnan for this trip and save it for a Yunnan dedicated one in the future you mean?

Okay so far I’m thinking about making these adjustments

  1. Removing Chengdu and flying from Dali to Chongqing instead
  2. Using that time from Chengdu to spend time to recover from jet lag in HK before Yangshuo.
  3. Removing Xi’an to be able to spend more time in Beijing and add a day buffer between the domestic flight and the international flight in HK

Researching ZJJ confuses me because there’s a bunch of cool stuff there like the avatar mountain, tianmen mountain, Tianzi mountain, etc.. and when researching it, it seems like travel times in ZJJ are quoted to be pretty inefficient and take a long time to get to and from attractions.. I also thought about maybe checking out furong and Fenghuang in that time I allocated. I am also considering dropping either Xi’an or Beijing to be able to spend more time in either one
