No, this is definitely Yahoo Mail too. This, from Yahoo... "After February 28, 2022 you will no longer be able to send or receive new emails from mainland China or download data."

I heart that Yahoo services will stop working in China (without a VeePN) from the end of this month. Another one bites the dust! Can anyone recommend a free, English-language e-mail services that still works in China (Without a VeepN)?

My health code also did not update despite double vaccination. But the clinic were able to print me off a "certificate" showing all the vaccination details, which should help in the future if necessary,

I went to the forest today with my young son and two of his classmates. We were let in by the guard after the usual signing in with phone number and we headed up the hill. However, an hour or so later, as we were playing harmlessly amongst the trees, he tracked us down and said we were not allowed to be in the woods, only to visit the temple. He said it was a fire risk. I pointed out that don't smoke, it had rained heavily the day before and the kids were simply hunting for twigs and insects. But he insisted it was his job to remove people and that the forest opened again officially on June 15th (ie rainy season, no fire risk). I told him I was really disappointed but I understood he was just doing as he was told. We left. Maybe he was just having a bad day (we've been 20+ times before and never been kicked out) but be warned.

I was dreading an article like this coming out one day. My young son and I head here most weeks for the solitude and fresh air. We've always considered it our secret discovery! (If you do find the gazebo, check behind it for our home-made mouse house!!) I do hope it doesn't get too swamped with picnickers! It is a delightful spot.

Different coloured rental bikes seem to be all over town. Looking forward to a definitive GoK article explaining the options and differences and how to use them all.

Price is now 100RMB for adults, 70RMB for children.
Some of the animal areas are as far as 10+km from the entrance - you can buy a hop on/off bus ticket for 60RMB per person, but there are also clearly marked walkways for those who are full of energy.

Everything inside is pretty expensive - consider bringing a picnic.

Many of the animals are in large outdoor enclosures. Some are caged. The park calls itself a safari, but this is not a "drive your car amongst the animals" thing. It's more like a decent western zoo.
There are places to handle/be photographed with animals, for a fee. Also, some kids amusements.
The animal show is free, but a waste of time (unless you love watching goats, sheep, pigs, horses etc!!).
Good labelling i English thorughout.

Still worth a visit, especially for the arhat statues. The 11am vegetarian lunch is basic, but still only 10RMB. Free entry.

Prague cafe used to be my favourite cafe in Wenlin area but I went for lunch there today after a few months away and it's really gone downhill (new owners?). The menu was a photocopy, the food was lacklustre and much more expensive than before, the decor was dull and the service so-so. I won't be back there anytime soon.

It's open! And it's free. And its terrific for kids.

The museum is surprisingly interactive (although only 2/3 of the attractions are working) and modern (VR, simulators, touchscreens, etc). Sadly, no English on any of the displays but the fun is in trying to work out how the exhibits work and what they are supposed to be showing. Well worth a visit.
