    • GoKunming Weekend Preview

      ^Sounds like another Kunminger gone off the deep end. Maybe these endless days of nothing but sunshine are frying our brains.

    • Kunming taxis reinstate one yuan fuel surcharge

      Oil prices bottomed out around the end of last year/beginning of this year and have been on an upward trend ever since.

      Also, gasoline and diesel prices in China are set by the central government, which raised gasoline prices by 7% on 2 June.

      Not sure...there's a list of rules on the website, perhaps you could ask a favor of a chinese friend and have him look through them for you.

    • Kunming to host 2009 China Open minigolf tournament

      Are contestants required to achieve a minimum blood alcohol percentage before they tee off?

    • Forums > Living in Kunming > Paranoid about postage...

      It seems like people have way fewer customs problems sending through regular post than with FedEX UPS etc, where practically everything seems to get held up and have duties levied.

      Might be better to send by post and hire a minivan driver (50-100 kuai) to help you retrieve the boxes from the Beijing Lu post office.

    • Forums > Living in Kunming > US passport holders needing extra pages...

      The moral of the story is that the U.S. consulate is good at the following things:

      1) Denying visas to Chinese nationals.

      2) Charging $82 for a few sheets of paper.

      God bless the US of A.

    • Forums > Travel Yunnan > Recommended top sights to see in Li Jiang and Shangrila?

      Hi Richy,

      I honestly wouldn't recommend more than a few hours in the Lijiang old town, preferably late at night or early in the morning. It's picturesque but is essentially one big trinket shop and often really crowded.

      If money is no object and they want to see some unique stuff then they could consider building a personalized trip with Wild China: http://www.wildchina.com

      Haven't been on a trip but I've heard very good things. The owner is a Dali native who is now based out of the States and the company has a strong Yunnan focus:

      I've heard good things from people who've taken karate at this place:

      Instructor is third or fourth dan black belt and former captain of the New Zealand national team.

      The Box is the only place I can think of off the top of my head that has Sambuca. Not sure if they'll let you light it on fire, though.

    • Kunming > 1910 La Gare du Sud
      火车南站

      Agree with previous reviewer: good Yunnan food, great atmosphere, service not entirely up to snuff but above par for around here.

    • Kunming > Halfway House
      半山咖啡

      Always gotten a good feeling from this place. My only complaint is that other people like it and there are never any tables, even on off nights.

      As for gripes about open mic night, I know that 1895 and The Hump do open mic nights, so folks can always vote w/ their feet.

    • Kunming > Tobacco
      多巴果

      I've been to this place before. It's got almost as good of a beer selection as Fisherman's Bar, but is way cooler and more 舒服. The owner is a crazy/cool older guy who has done some crazy bike trips around Yunnan.

    • Kunming > Lazy Bones Pizza

      The pizza is quite good and, more importantly, the drink prices are the lowest I've seen in Kunming.
