We are playing this Thursday 6:30pm. Most of us are at a decent level. Usually playing on Mondays and Thursdays around 6:30pm or 7pm. Rackets can be borrowed with a 300 yuan deposit if I'm not mistaken. Around the stadium there's several shops selling rackets for 150 to 300 yuan each.

Actually there are very comfortable and fast Volkswagen Passats available at the West bus station for close to the same price. Outside of major holidays it would take you more than half an hour waiting time to catch one right out front, the last time I checked. Has been a safe bet for me every time. If you're unwilling to pay 600 to 700 kuai you can share the taxi with others as well.

Alexez: I did post on the photos and actually lowered saturation. The grain is on purpose, shame you don't like it. :)

Xizhou is one of Dali's gems, only about 18 kilometers north along the lake from Dali Old Town. The old town still feels authentic and is like a living gallery, showcasing the impressive artistry and culture of the Bai people.

It makes for a great stop on the way up to Shaxi Old Town too, which is perhaps my favourite place in Dali prefecture.

I've been to the Stone Forest many times and although when entering the park it may feel a bit like a tourist trap, there's areas in the back that, even during high season, are usually extremely quiet and can be explored without being surrounded by the crowds.

The landscape is unique and different from many nearly areas that also feature karst rock formations. Definitely worth a visit for those who haven't been yet.

Five stars for focussing on healthy foods. Homemade live sauerkraut, lots of dishes with quinoa, chia seeds, avocado, and tons of other superfoods mixed to create a tasty and healthy cuisine. I hope this is only the beginning of a new wave of alternative food options in the city.

One of the better options in Lijiang for a western meal. Had a set menu through meituan for only 99 yuan that included a very decent steak and onion soup. The environment is spacious and nicely designed with the restaurant being conveniently located in between the InterContinental and LUX hotel inside of the old town. We were not drinking, but they looked like having an impressive wine collection. 5 stars if they improve on speed and service level.

Sofitel is easily one of Kunming's top hotels now, featuring one of the best locations, in between the city center and the popular Dianchi Lake area.

The views from any of its rooms, as well as the buffet restaurant are quite stunning, offering previously unseen panoramas over the whole of Kunming.

There's a bar on the 50th floor, although currently it still has some work to do to be able to compare itself with similar 'skybars' in Shanghai or Beijing.
