@tiger, zehner,
Great info!
Do you think the trails would be easy on a mtn bike with "road" tires and no shocks?
@tiger
My last bike tour was 10 years ago, so that's why I was curious about Veravdn said.
I had gone through sichuan and yunnan and generally the towns were very small where I stayed at, and as far as I remember were fine.
At that time nightly rate was 25-30 a night.
@veravdn,
Did you ever stay in the "trucker" hotels, those are basically right at the entrance of any small town where the drivers and others would usually stay for the night, and often pretty cheap?
I never had an issue with any of those and there never was
a question about registration except one time when the police showed up to check my docs,
but this was years ago, I wonder if things have changed as things have greatly tightened up?
@liumingke,
Sorry but you are also incorrect.
You assume that if a child does not go to a "school" they cannot or will not learn as well as going to a formal school.
Homeschooling is as or more effective than any formal school.
@cloud,
Bad assumption on the ability to read and write if they do not attend a school.
No results found.
Hoping on what Ocean said, it's worth a visit, but if one wasn't going to the surrounding areas as well, I think I might as just visit the ocean park at Dounan, about the same, and cheaper.
Right now price is 230 per adult, add 30 yuan and it's year round pass.
kids about 150, plus 30.
kids under 110 cm free.
The biggest, and longest show is the circus, runs about an hour.
Everything Ocean stated about the park and shows is accurate.
Parking is 10 yuan and can stay overnight if adventurous?
Toilets and water close.
Food stalls and restaurants, but close at park closing time at 6 pm.
Nothing is in walking distance to the park, but there is a local market every morning, we went there to stock up on food and eat breakfast.
I think the biggest benefit of this place, if one is considering the annual pass, is the other local places to visit.
There is a large farm with a play area nearby, camping, and tiny home and trailer rentals.
Another parking lot to stay for free.
Shilin Forest and Jiuxiang Cave are close, with another large lake nearby and other farms.
Went there with the kids, was very cool.
Can rent traditional outfits, take pictures in the temple and throne, my girls loved it.
The town itself is great if you like the old traditional buildings, and they had some shows put on, music, dancing, and little skits.
For about 35 rmb each, kids free, was worth it, wished we had more time there.

Snapshot: A change of heart in Lijiang Old Town
Posted byYep. I have always loved and still love the "Old Towns" no matter the naysayers and the "purists" of china travelers.
Yes, they are often crowded, overpriced, not authentic for the most part, but they have tons of personality IMO, and can always find great content for shooting pics or vids.
