Forums > Travel Yunnan > Any good hotel/inn in Lijiang?

Hi.. I live in Lijiang.. I can suggest Garden Inn. is a lovely place in a quieter part of the Old Town.. but still close to everything.. I think they have dorms for about 30 or 35.. and single rooms at about 100 or so.. They are also good for making travel arrangements or travel advice..

Call in and say hi when you get here.. I have a little cafe here.. "Through the window cafe" you can google us or look on trip adviser.. also will see Garden inn on there.. or www.mayhostel.com

Or if you want something a bit noisier. Mama Naxi's is fun also.. or Panba Hostel

Forums > Travel Yunnan > Visa in Lijiang

Hi. I live in Lijiang and have been to PSB many times..

1. Yes the helpful girls there speak very good English..

2. Best go between 9.30 - 11.30 0r 2-4.30.. they have long lunch hours and sometimes close early..

3 Take a taxi is easiest.. about 10-12 rmb from most parts of the city..

4. Taxi address: 丽江市公安局出入境管理处
Go up the big stairs and straight through.. the foreign visa section is on the right hand side..

5. They will usually take only 2 days to get the extension. I have been there on my last day of visa.. but once they give you the receipt (for your passport) you can still travel.. I went to Shangrila and came back 3 days later to collect.. They don't keep your passport.. so when you return, don't get taxi to wait,.. because they will take a little while to prepare and insert our visa etc.. when you return.. hence best to NOT arrive at 11.45am or 4.45.. :-)

You will pay 160rmb.. for extension.. (NZ PP) but best make sure you have the correct money.. not give 2 x 100's

When you come to Lijiang.. drop and and see us if you need some info on local stuff or travel to Tiger leaping gorge etc.. at Through the Window Cafe.. Check us out on Tripadvser.com

Good luck with your travels..
