It has a total length of about 1,035 kilometers and a design speed of 160 kilometers per hour. The Sino-Lao Railway consists of Kunyu Section, Yuma Section and Mowan Section. Among them, the Kunyu Section from Kunming South Railway Station to Yuxi Station has a total length of 79 kilometers and a design speed of 200 kilometers per hour; the Yuma Section from Yuxi Station to Mohan Station has a total length of 507 kilometers and a design speed of 160 kilometers per hour; the Mowan Section from Moding Station to Vientiane South Railway Station has a total length of 418 kilometers and a design speed of 160 kilometers per hour. The impact of the opening of the old and middle-aged railway on tourism and economic development The opening of the China-Laos Railway has greatly promoted cross-border tourism and economic development.It has brought new tourism opportunities to areas along the route, attracting a large number of domestic and foreign tourists, especially elderly tourists.Data show that since this year, tourist orders from ASEAN countries to Xishuangbanna have increased by more than 250% year-on-year, of which the number of tourists from Thailand and Malaysia has increased significantly. In addition, the opening of the China-Lao Railway has also significantly improved the efficiency of cargo transportation. In January this year, more than 29,900 people entered and left the country through the China-Lao Railway, an increase of 63% year-on-year; the import and export goods transported through the China-Lao Railway reached 478,000 tons, with a cargo value of 1.33 billion yuan, an increase of 7% and 2% year-on-year, respectively. The tourism value of the old and middle-aged railways The Sino-Lao Railway has beautiful scenery along the way, with 8 stations, each with a unique landscape and historical and cultural background.For example, the Nanuo Terraces at Yuanjiang Station, the Tropic of Cancer Sign Garden and Bixi Ancient Town in Mojiang, the tea and coffee gardens in Pu'er, the wild Asian Elephant Observation Area in Wild Elephant Valley, and the tropical rainforest and Dai customs of Xishuangbanna all provide travelers with a rich travel experience. In addition, the China-Laos Railway also provides multilingual services and other convenient facilities for international tourists, such as medical emergency points and ATMs, which greatly enhance the travel experience of international tourists.
