Forums > Travel Yunnan > Yuxi-Kunming Trains? So any advice on getting to the YUXI bound bus station? The only one I know of is now in Cheng Gong, which is more than an hour away from where I live (Yunnan Ag. U.).
Tell me about these 50 rmb black cars I can supposedly find on Renming Lu. Do they have signs saying they will go to YUXI?
Forums > Living in Kunming > Beware US Consulate Chengdu Why do you think the place was attacked by a mob a few years ago? You don't think the dips behave better when they are off-duty, do you?
Chinese students compile statistics of rejections at various consulates and post them to web pages. Last I heard, the Shenyang consulate was the worst, rejecting 80% of applications.

Forums > Travel Yunnan > What bus goes from the Yunnan University area to Cheng Gong I'm returning to KM after a time away. What busses connect the area of Yunnan University with Cheng Gong and the new South Bus Station? There used to be a bus station near Walmart, on Ren Min St. with busses to local towns including Cheng Gong. Is it still in business?

China's upscaling of potato production sprouts controversy
发布者It's only in S. China that potatoes are yang yu 洋芋 or foreign root. In the North, they are tu dou 土 豆 earth bean. Yunnan people eat more potatoes than in most parts of China, but they are definitely a major part of Dong Bei cuisine also.
As for storage, in the Andean Plateau of Peru and Bolivia, the homeland of the potatoe, people sun dry them or freeze dry them, much as Dong Bei people do with cabbages and onions at the beginning of Winter.
The Andes have many varieties which have never been taken elsewhere. Maybe the Chinese ag. authorities can change that!
