Seems like not much is blocked now except Google related and usual suspects. As long as you have the site bookmarked and it's not trying to access Google ad services, and if it is, then just press stop at some point.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Google services no longer working Another trick is to press stop if a page is just spinning loading, good chance most of the page will show up. I use Chrome as my browser and this works mostly. Still not going to work for totally blocked sites. Nothing can replace a vpn for those.
Also if using Chrome, disable autoloading of plugins. Stops browser from trying to load embedded YouTube videos.
Forums > Living in Kunming > Watching World Cup Tim, that's awesome of you. I am going to bring a giant bowl of guoqiao mixian with all the fixings to the USA v Portugal game. Or I will order a steak sandwich at 2am and come back and eat it four hours later.

Kunming ranks fifth nationally in expat poll
发布者I've been to all of the above cities except Tianjin, and I can only reason the expats surveyed aren't all that well traveled... because there is no way Kunming ranks above Qingdao, Xiamen, and Hangzhou if you factor in "job opportunities, schools and administrative policies." Once again, the mythical allure of the spring city bumps it up.
