Travel in China
Most visitors day-trip from Kunming, but sleeping near the stones buys you the two best hours — the empty lanes of early morning and the amber light after the coaches leave.
Best Areas to Stay
Stone Forest County Town
Minutes from the gates: Yi restaurants, Sani embroidery shops and a spread of hotels and homestays — the practical pick for museum-plus-Naigu itineraries.
Kunming City
The widest choice of hotels at every level, twenty minutes back up the rail line — the easy base for a one-day sortie.
Countryside & Hot-Spring Resorts
Resort-style retreats in Shilin's countryside and hot-spring quarters add a slow, green counterpoint to the stone maze.
