STORYLINE:
The China-Laos Railway started cross-border passenger services in April.
The Mohan checkpoint on China's border with Laos tallied that as of Tuesday, 246 train trips had been provided by the railway, serving 52,888 passengers from 53 countries and regions.
Trains departing from Kunming, the capital of southwest China's Yunnan Province, travel at a speed of up to 160 km per hour through mountains and valleys. The trip from Kunming to the Lao capital of Vientiane takes 10 and a half hours to complete, including the time spent on going through customs.
As the 7th China-South Asia Exposition is set to take place from Aug. 16 to 20 in Kunming, many foreigners choose to take the railway to travel to Kunming.
