I forgot to add, a lot more fun is making your own ornaments to go on the tree. They can be whatever you like, even stuff like old toys you have lying around.

Gmaps. 25.033894,102.722873

or enter 东方航空 baidu maps for Kunming. Should be A.

Or nearby, somewhere on Tudong around that vicinity. Should be a big office with China Eastern on it. 1st floor, kinda looks like a bank for some reason. It's been a while, but I was able to pay in cash and the fares in their system were the same as online at their site. Of course bring your passport, and just to be safe, have a copy of the fare info on paper or in your phone.

It's possible some small shops will have an extension outlet that might have big loose plug holes that a UK plug can fit in. Only way would to know for sure would be to bring a UK plug with you and test it.

Dali definitely needs upgraded fire protection. Huo ba jie is great, but the city looks like it's on fire already, even when it's not during that day.

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.
