Finding a good-value hotel in Qilian
China's largest cities can cover enormous distances. A slightly higher room rate near a useful metro or rail station can save both time and money. Qilian is part of a region known for high-altitude lakes, Tibetan cultural areas and vast plateau road-trip landscapes.
Distances are large and itineraries often involve early trains, flights or long drives. The right overnight stop can save more than a slightly cheaper room far from the transport hub.

Getting around and continuing your trip
