Hohhot – Inner Mongolia

Finally we reached Yunnan our last province in China. We crossed two hills to reach Shangri-La and met a fellow cyclist Davide. We also came across a lot of mud. From there it was down and up to Lijiang for a well deserved rest.

From Hezuo it was a short ride to Xiahe during which we found a great campspot. In Xiahe at Labrang Monastery we have been amazed by the Tibetan atmosphere. Truly remarkable.

Crossing the Yellow sea we cycled from Qingdao inland through Shandong province.

We followed the river north and reached the very busy city of Dalian with many big roads. We have really crossed the Asian continent! We took a ferry to Yantai and from there a ferry to Incheon South Korea.
