Too cold for all but the hardiest of Chinese tourists. Actually this time of year, just before Chinese New Year is a good time to travel. People are saving up for the BIG holiday. Also the two months after CNY are quieter times to travel.
The smell in many toilets is down to the plumbing ' breathing'
back into the room. It is nothing to do with hygiene. You can buy water traps that drop into the floor drains. In most cases there is already a shallow trap, but you need to pour water down them regularly to stop the air flowing back.
There are other options for rental area. Some place are not popular with students or city business people and are much cheaper. A friend I knew got a nice 3 bedroom place near Puji Lu, which is only about 15 mins bike ride from the university area. If I remember correctly the rent was under 2k.
At the risk of starting another pissing contest, you can expect to pay 6 or even 12 months rent in advance, a peculiarity of the Kunming market. Make sure you have the funds available, just in case.
Ah Haa! Lost in the narrative, I see it now. Thanks Janjal.
Maybe I can spectate on the 18th. It will be good to see some hockey, too old to play though.
When I was young 2020 was perfect eyesight ;-)
No results found.
Great to know it is no longer dry.
Good review BTW
This has moved.
The cut flowers are about 700m east on Duonan Jie. The plants and trees are about 700 m west and follow Duocai Section.
A reasonable choice of lumber that has improved over time. Fancy hardwoods like walnut, and mahogany are in abundance. There are some plywood and rubber-wood boards available. There are also some kiln dried imported softwoods and merbao available. Some of the lumber is very green, so look for the kiln dried if you need stable timbers.
Echo everything said by others.
Breakfast great and the serve from 8am. Most other places say 9am and they still are not ready.
Sandwiches are cheap 22-32, and really packed full of filling. We got some sandwiches for a day out, the only mistake I made was ordering two, as this was too much. These are seriously good sangars, and they are wrapped in alu foil.
In fairness to Metro, they are a wholesalers, and not really a supermarket. Hence the need for a card, which can be got around.
They have improved in the year I have been away. They now carry a more consistent range of imported foodstuffs and they also seem to have sorted out the mported milk supply.
They have a wider range of electrical appliances now, there is a coice of more than one toast. There is also a better range of seasonal non foods, like clothes, shoes, garden furniture and camping gear.

发布者Off topic, but related to theme songs. When we watched terrestrial TV we listened to the whole theme, even if only in the background while we quickly made a cup of tea or finished off some other chore. With streaming, or watching box sets, we quickly FF over the theme song and titles. We are missing a lot of great music.
Everything else said by the last two posters can be captured within the idea that we no longer live in a society, we live in a market.
