Mángshì (Lùxī) Getting there & around

Getting there & away

Land

Bus

There are several bus stations in Mángshì. Both the long-distance bus station in the north of town and the southern bus station offer similar destinations at similar prices and schedules. If you don’t find your bus at one, trudge along to the other.

See the box above for bus services from Mángshì.

A bus stand situated a block southwest of the southern bus stand has the most frequent departures to Wǎndīng (Y20) and Ruìlì (Y20, 7am to 8pm). Minibuses leave when they’re full so you will need to be prepared to wait.

Air

The airport is 10km from the city. There are daily flights between Mángshì and Kūnmíng (Y790). There are no buses from Mángshì airport to the town centre so you’ll have no choice but to negotiate with the taxi sharks at the airport (Y20-25). Minibuses to Ruìlì (Y30, two hours) usually wait at the airport for incoming flights.

Buses leave the Mángshì Yunnan Airlines (Wenhua Lu; 8.30am-noon & 2.30-6pm) office for the airport around an hour before flight departures.
