Chapter XIV: Book II

The second part of my trip was from almost the extreme east to the extreme west of Yün-nan--from Tong-ch'uan-fu to Bhamo, in British Burma. The following was the route chosen, over the main road in some instances, and over untrodden roads in others, just as circumstances happened:

Tong-ch'uan-fu to Yün-nan-fu (the capital city) 520 li.
Yün-nan-fu to Tali-fu 905 li.
Tali-fu to Tengyueh (Momien) 855 li.
Tengyueh to Bhamo (Singai) 280 English
miles approx.

I also made a rather extended tour among the Miao tribes, in country untrodden by Europeans, except by missionaries working among the people.
