Forums > Living in Kunming > Dongchuan earthquake

@Alpage
Not sure. The LA Times article says, "...the Richter scale was eventually scrapped in favor of what is known as the moment magnitude scale" but that's news to me! Most people would still think "Richter" if you talk about the size of an earthquake.

I've heard that Kunming's senior citizens are a bit miffed that their Free Bus Passes don't work on the new 2RMB buses? It does give the rest of us a chance for a seat though!

@yuanyangren: Good point. Never occured to me before. Mind you, I think being constantly badgered in the street by passing taxi drivers might be worse than occasionally being ignored or refused. Tough call.

I think I must live in the right part of town! Mind you, pedantically speaking "more than an hour" is a far cry from "20 or so minutes" or even "up to an hour". I'm all for more taxis and buses though. Someone stop throwing more cars onto the Kunimg streets!

Price is now 100RMB for adults, 70RMB for children.
Some of the animal areas are as far as 10+km from the entrance - you can buy a hop on/off bus ticket for 60RMB per person, but there are also clearly marked walkways for those who are full of energy.

Everything inside is pretty expensive - consider bringing a picnic.

Many of the animals are in large outdoor enclosures. Some are caged. The park calls itself a safari, but this is not a "drive your car amongst the animals" thing. It's more like a decent western zoo.
There are places to handle/be photographed with animals, for a fee. Also, some kids amusements.
The animal show is free, but a waste of time (unless you love watching goats, sheep, pigs, horses etc!!).
Good labelling i English thorughout.

Still worth a visit, especially for the arhat statues. The 11am vegetarian lunch is basic, but still only 10RMB. Free entry.

Prague cafe used to be my favourite cafe in Wenlin area but I went for lunch there today after a few months away and it's really gone downhill (new owners?). The menu was a photocopy, the food was lacklustre and much more expensive than before, the decor was dull and the service so-so. I won't be back there anytime soon.

It's open! And it's free. And its terrific for kids.

The museum is surprisingly interactive (although only 2/3 of the attractions are working) and modern (VR, simulators, touchscreens, etc). Sadly, no English on any of the displays but the fun is in trying to work out how the exhibits work and what they are supposed to be showing. Well worth a visit.
