Forums > Travel Yunnan > Recent visa renewal.

The PSB office won't be able to help you, unless you wish to do a 30 day visa extension which will negate your multiple entry visa.

For a Laos border run, read this:

The Mohan border closes by 5:30pm to foreign passport holders.

Or you could just fly to HK or Macau or Bangkok. Or make your way to Shenzhen and cross by land into HK.

Air tickets. Accepts international credit cards.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Looking for cast iron stove.

Those seem more for the export market. I haven't seen a shop in Kunming sell anything like that.

In the Yunnan countryside, they will use wood burning stoves, but no one uses a fancy stove like that. Also, the wood burning stoves they use are dual purpose and actually more for cooking. That stove is primarily for heating, which again is for the export market.

Though in Shangrila, some of the cafes will use nicer wood stoves for heating only, but still nothing that fancy.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Are cheap Chinese bikes worth buying ?

You're not asking your bike to do much, so a cheap bike will do. However, if you buy a bike that's flimsy, things will break over 6 months, but repairs are cheap. Spend a little more on something that seems more solid, and it should hold up better.

Whatever bike you get, make sure to get a good lock. It doesn't matter if your bike is cheap, the bike thieves will try to steal it all the same.

The roads near Tengchong are ruined by the sheer number of trucks carrying logs. You can tell the trade is one way, as the side of the road coming from Burma is much worse than the direction heading back. Heavy laden trucks in; empties back for more jade or timber.

Those neighborhoods have the least guangxi and probably pay the low or subsidized rates. I live right across a major street from one of those, but in a modern highrise. Will be interesting to see if my water flows unabated while they get reduced pressure. If so, would be completely unfair.

Never gotten sick once at Sals. Their food is TexMex, so yeah, not authentic Mexican food, but pretty authentic as TexMex goes. Burrito wrap has improved a lot. Like the draft beer option now.

If you haven't had dairy products in a while, and do eat here, best forgo the sour cream. Nothing wrong with it, in fact it's the best sour cream in Kunming, but if you've eaten Chinese for month or months with no dairy intake, your system will react to sour cream or probably any liquid dairy product not so well. Maybe that's what happened with nailer and tallamerican.

Update:

It's now 5 working days for regular processing. So I submitted my application a bit before 5pm on a Friday and was told to pick it up next week Friday after 5pm.

Cost is now 400rmb for a single 30 day entry. Or that was what I was charged anyways. There are no posted prices and its cash only with no receipt except for your passport pickup. That's like $65 USD.

You can pay another 150rmb for 2 day or 100rmb for 3 day processing. For 400rmb, they should process it in three days like they used to before, but now you'd pay 500rmb. The office is still like deserted most of the time, so why does it take longer now and cost extra. If you opted for 2 day, thats like $90 usd. All other neighboring countries charge like $25usd.

The rest of and cope review is still good for hours and location.

Far out, less people. Big enough to get lost in. Pretty and quiet near dusk. 20yuan entrance fee.

Like everyone else says, best Indian food in Kunming. They have lunch plates and dinner plates. Show up before 1pm for lunch.

They are on the 4th floor of the half empty shopping mall. Best way is too take the elevator past the KFC around the corner from Starbucks.

Most individual dishes can feed only two hungry guys, so order more if you are starving. Naan order can take care of one only.

Five stars for the food. Go with Yereth's recommendations, plus any vegetable the waitress says is fresh.

Beware that Xue Fu lu is one way, so many taxis have to take a roundabout way to get here.
