Overall, I'd say it's a good place to take kids but if you're an adult and a dinosaur/fossil geek, don't expect to have your mind blown.]]></content:encoded>

The new Chuxiong—Dali highway connects Chuxiong Yi autonomous prefecture, which lies between Kunming and Dali, to Dali, serving as the main economic trunk line linking Kunming to west Yunnan."

Also, a bump for GoKunming's Destination China short video uploaded a month ago (co-produced by Yereth) titled "A life called Dali (2022)." Beautifully done by the team:

Btw, for those taking the train/HSR to Dali from Kunming in recent days. A negative nucleic acid test result within 48 hours is required.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[To backtrack to the original topic, there is a review of the park from 2016 on this site:

https://www.gokunming.com/en/blog/item/3696/a-trip-to-yunnans-jurassic-park

Does anyone know if the park today operates at same level of quality as witnessed in the article, or has it been improved or fallen from that?

To get there, the article recommends taking bus from Kunming West bus station to Lufeng (1h30min) and then small bus to the park (40min), and leave the park before 16:30 to catch last bus to Kunming. 

To connect back to the more recent posts, does the high speed train to Dali stop at Lufeng? That would allow for better options to get there from Kunming - maybe even day visit there and get to Dali by evening.]]></content:encoded>
