How to get from Chongqing to Dunhuang

If you plan to travel from Chongqing to Dunhuang, the following are some suggestions from three aspects: itinerary, transportation mode and accommodation:

1. Travel arrangements:

Chongqing is far from Dunhuang, so I suggest you arrange a trip of at least 10 days. You can arrange the route according to your own time and interest, but you usually need to pass through cities such as Chengdu or Xi 'an. Here are some possible routes:

-Chongqing-Chengdu-Jiuzhaigou-Huanglong-Dunhuang (about 10- 12 days)

-Chongqing -Xi 'an-Jiayuguan-Dunhuang (about 10- 12 days)

-Chongqing-Kunming-Dali-Lijiang-Dunhuang (about 12- 15 days)

2. Mode of transportation:

Because of the distance, you can choose to fly, train or coach to Dunhuang. Here are some possible modes of transportation:

-Plane: You can fly to Dunhuang from Chongqing Jiangbei Airport or Chengdu Shuangliu Airport. The flight time is about 2.5 hours.

-Train: You can take a train from Chongqing to Lanzhou, and then transfer to Dunhuang in Lanzhou. The whole journey takes about 15 hour.

-Coach: You can take a long-distance bus from Chongqing to Dunhuang, but it takes about 30 hours.

3. Accommodation:

Dunhuang is a tourist city, so there are many different levels of accommodation options. Here are some recommended places to stay:

-Dunhuang Villa: This is a five-star hotel, located in the city center, near Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring.

Hotels near Shazhou Night Market: There are many family hotels and inns, which are relatively cheap and close to Shazhou Night Market, so it is easy to taste local food.
