Forums > Living in Kunming > extending period of multi-entry visa That's pretty much impossible. But if you can pull it off, please report back. Who knows, maybe your extenuating circumstances will get a sympathetic ear. Free to ask them at the office anyways, but explain clearly as it's most likely a very infrequent request
Forums > Travel Yunnan > Where s Dwarf empire You can bike out there. Pleasant ride if you go through the villages and just one hill to climb. But by bike it does take a while, so have an open day.

Forums > Living in Kunming > extending period of multi-entry visa If you get an in country extension, you will most likely have your 90 day multiple replaced and cancelled by a new single 30 day extension, which cannot be renewed.
As for visa runs, you could always fly to Bangkok roundtrip same day or Shenzhen and use a land crossing for HK. Shenzhen has a 24 hour land crossing also.

The inaugural Kunming International Business Conference
发布者@Alien: Local students with a passive interest in business attended, so that's a very open Welcome mat.
Tourist jaunt in Lijiang turns ugly
发布者There are definitely thugs posing as tour operators in China. Luckily, it's the exception. In Vietnam they just pull out knives, then the tourists pay up.
Zen and the Chinese art of motorcycle driving
发布者BMWs top my ahole list. Unsurprisingly, in both USA and China.
Kunming to Vietnam border by rail soon to be reality
发布者Given how China works, a Hekou West could be 35km to the north west instead. Just so people don't get confused reading, there is NO Hekou West station that I know of. Just made it up as an example of how that new extension line could drop you off in middle of nowhere, like Mengzi North (which is real).
For Sapa transportation, if you can find anything for 50k to 80k dong per person after the border, take it. Otherwise you have to figure out how to get to Lao Cai bus station. Also, rides are a daytime thing, not that you'd want to head up that road at night anyways.
