What do you love about Kunming?

And I like the leetle kids, well, most of them most of the time, anyway.
And Chuihu, and the old Yunda campus.

Another thing I love about Kunming is that teenagers don't hang out in corners. Growing up in New York City especially in the not so good neighborhoods, there's a lot of that. Teenagers and adult just hanging out looking for trouble. Drinking their beers and smoking weed. Here,most of the teens are either home doing their homework or maybe in the internet bars.

I love the water delivery guys. They have a crap job and are always in an incredible hurry. But in my experience they are incredibly friendly even after lugging two jugs of water up seven flights of stairs.

Hello,

Once in a guesthouse many people were smoking weed, I could smell it. Is it still similar now when traveling to Kunming / Dali ?

Just want to know.

Thanks.

Don't do drugs unless you want to wind up in prison or deported.

BkkShoppers experience and follow-up question probably isn't in the right forum, but that doesn't mean it's not true. Cloudlands 5th floor was a whole floor, a whole floor! dedicated to potheads.

But nowadays it's less likely you'll encounter so many weed smokers in a single hostel where the smell is overwhelming. There are a lot more hostels to choose from now, so none get concentrated in one, and many more types of travelers that don't smoke and many more Chinese guests who don't smoke weed either. In Dali you'll encounter it a bit more, but again, with so many more hostels now and so many more non weed smoking travelers, you'd be very unlucky to encounter a problem level amount.

Ok, so it's safe :-)
If I understand, you mean that people might smoke as much as before, but with more accommodations I would be very unlucky to stay in a hotel near them, even if I go to cheap places.

I posted my comment on this page to know if weed was something that people loved about Kunming ? Good that it does not seem to be the main reason why people travel there :-)

Thank you.

Many a foreigners think they can come to a foreign country and use drugs and not get caught. Many those same foreigners are locked up in jails here and other Asian countries. You've been warned!
