well the cost was around 4000 yuan= 52000 rupees. this is variable depending on the places u wana c. if ur coming from pakisatan the cost will go up definitly. the major cost is the entrance fees to the sites. they are pretty high.
we stayed at the youth hostels @ 30 Rmb/had / nite. this was not expensive and the experience was great. also we ate at muslim resurants mostly. i am living in Nanjing China these days so it was easier for me.
if some1 is willing to come here i can help him plan this trip in such a way that it wud cost minimum.
we spent 12 dayz alltogether.
Kunming = 2 days
Lijiang = 3 days
shangrila= 2 dayz
rets were travelling dayz.
the best season for coming here is in summers so one can go upto Deqin and Meili snow mountain trek. that is awsum. we could not go there coz of snow.
