Travel as a Muslim to Yuxi

Bus

Buses many times a day arrive from Kunming]. The Central Bus Station GPS 24.359857,102.535902 in Yuxi is north of downtown.

Train

The train station still shown on most maps is

• Yuxi West Railway Station formerly known simply as Yuxi Railway Station, and located close to downtown (Hongta St). This station closed on 2016-12-15, and a new, larger station (Yuxi Railway Station GPS 24.341906, 102.510667) opened instead. The new station sits amidst strawberry fields at least 3 kilometers southwest of downtown, but it feels like more, because the road network in that new area is yet to be completed. Buses no. 7, 11, 15, 22 serve the new station.

The new Yuxi Railway Station has two kinds of service. "Conventional" trains on the Kunming -Hekou line (several a day) stop at Yuxi as well; along their route they stop in Kunyang (between Kunming and Yuxi) as well as Tonghai, Mengzi, etc on their way to Hekou. These trains run from Kunming Railway Station, south of Kunming's downtown.

In the late 2016, soon after the new station opened, more frequent and faster service non-stop service from Kunming along the new ("intercity") line was introduced as well. As of 2023 and these trains run from Kunming's new high-speed train station, called Kunming South (Kunmingnan); however, Kunming's railway network is undergoing a major reconstruction now, so this may change after the end of 2017.
