With the continuous expansion of the railway network in recent years, "traveling in Yunnan by train" is favored by more and more tourists. Among the trains connecting the major cities in Yunnan, the double decker express trains from Kunming to Lijiang and Dali to Lijiang are the most popular.

The train is designed with rare double-layer coaches, which can not only accommodate a large number of passengers, but also facilitate passengers to find seats. In addition, passengers can enjoy good time in the entertainment carriage. For example, they can sing karaoke, and admire dance performances of ethnic minorities.
