My Uni has been asking for religious affiliation annually for many years now. Always in a rather embarrassed manner, to be fair!

The first shock appears to have been at 21.21 on 21st, 2021....
The GoK listings only has Kunming Hotel as a ten-pin bowling venue (anyone know if it still exists?) but I hear rumours of other more modern places (Nanya? COHO?). Does anyone know of any?
Nope. There is Burger King, MacDonald's and KFC. Dicos is the Chinese fried chicken fast food equivalent.
Or check our small toy shops clustered around schools. I bought a Christmas hat at one this morning.
No results found.
This place is now closed.
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.

Bye-bye for now Kunming narrow gauge railway
发布者Such a shame. My son and I have often taken the train to ShiZui and back as a fun morning's outing. 2RMB return was a bargain and it was amusing to see all the traffic stopped as we trundled by. We'll miss this unique and anachronistic gem.
Around Town: Kunming's secluded Lianhua Temple
发布者Forest is shut now until June 2018. Temple may still be accessible if the guards believe that is really your destination.
