The Stone Forest is located 80 km (1.5 Hours) southwest of Kunming. The Stone Forest is Kunming's most visited scenic spot. Unfortunately, there are so many tourists here that it is difficult to enjoy or photograph. The price of admission also includes admission to the Black Stone Forest. You can take a bus from the Eastern Bus Station in Kunming to the Shi Lin Ke Yuan Zhan Bus Station located on Dong Shan Road in Shi Lin. There you can take Bus #5 that will take you directly to the main gate of the Stone Forest for 2 Yuan. TICKETS: 175 Yuan or 200 Yuan for a 1 year membership. Bring your passport or photo ID to purchase the 1 year membership. Shi Lin (Stone Forest) is one of the 4 famous forests found in Yunnan province. The other forests include Sha Lin (Sand Forest) in Qujing, Tu Lin (Soil Forest) in Chuxiong, and Re Dai Yu Lin (Tropical Rain Forest) in Xishuangbanna.
1. Take a bus from the Eastern Bus Station in Kunming to the Shi Lin Ke Yuan Zhan Bus Station located on Dong Shan Road in Shi Lin. (80 KM)
2. Take Bus #5 (RED bus) from the Shi Lin Bus Station directly to the main gate of the Stone Forest for 2 Yuan. (10 KM)
TICKETS to Stone Forest are 175 Yuan. I prefer an annual ticket for 200 Yuan for a 1 year membership. Bring your passport or photo ID to purchase the 1 year membership.
The Stone Forest is Kunming's most visited scenic spot. Unfortunately, there are so many tourists here that it is difficult to enjoy or photograph. The price of admission also includes admission to the Black Stone Forest. This is the best place to go as there are very few visitors there. Black Stone Forest is 6 km from the Major Stone Forest.
Most agencies CLAIM that they are experts and know the area but I have found most have never even visited many of the places they claim to be an expert in. Most of these agencies visit the same 4-5 scenic spots (Stone Forest, etc) but know very little or nothing about other places in Yunnan.

Most, not all of the agencies, want money just to give you some basic information.
There is a very clear difference between having a legitimate complaint and WHINING. For all the parties who have some interest in this matter, why not just go to the place where these shows take place and find the LADY who everyone says is a LIAR. Find her, take her picture, make sure she is the same person who cheated you, be 100% sure and then post her pictures and info on this forum. However, do NOT come here and start making false accusations that injure others and dont come here and begin all this commotion and then say you don't want to hurt others. Well Beatrice, too late, seems like you hurt the wrong people when you started all this - DO the right thing.
Don't expect others to do the right thing - this is why this world is what it is now. Stop whining and do the right thing. You know who this person is - find her - take her picture and post the phone number you have.
The new highway is nearly complete and the airport will open next year. Expect floods of people to go who never bothered to go before because of the 6-7 hour bus ride.
Another one bites the dust! Great, another member of the WTO, UN and USA. It is time for Laos to begin to follow all the rules set forth by the USA and UN. Got to protect the Individual Property Rights of the rich. Time to crack down on the illegal DVD vendors. No more downloading FREE music or videos. Time to roll in all the wonderful GMO crops.

The new Visa office is located at 118 Tuo Dong Road. There is no number on the building yet so do not bother to look for it. There are 2 passport photo shops on either side of the building. The office is located directly in front of the Kunming Museum. The bus stop is named - Shi Bo Wu Guan - Bus 1, 62, 109, 117, 145, 213, A1 and K3 stop directly in front of the office. Foreigners need to go to the 3rd floor. The Tuo Dong Stadium is located to the right of the office while Baita Road is located to the left of the office.
