WeChat passport verification forces me to use my name as written on my bank card, which is of course different again from how my name is written on my passport. this is causing a number of problems I won't get into here, but one of them appears to be that it indeed doesn't show my vaccination status.
Alipay's health code is showing me a blue shield as well after one shot. Let's see if it updates properly after the second.
Thanks guys!
Just discovered www.zimuku.la seems to be offline, which was my go-to for great Chinese subtitles. Does anyone have an alternative that doesn't have encoding problems like some of them do?
Thanks!
There's actually a good pickup spot at the first t-split to the right coming out of the main exit when leaving the train station, which is north-east of that exit. I always use that location and didi cars can get there just fine.
Recently we've been slowly adding support for a Chinese language version of GoKunming. A few days ago we decided to add a language switch to the website that allows you to switch to Chinese.
We also automatically detect your computer's language setup (this is information sent by the browser) and switch to Chinese when that's the preferred user language.
A part of the website is not yet translated to Chinese and of course there's content such as articles and forums that will remain in their original language.
I also would like to take this opportunity to ask if anyone has successfully set up WeChat login for mobile websites (when opened inside of WeChat)? If so, it would be greatly appreciated to get a bit of guidance.
Thanks in advance!

Xizhou is one of Dali's gems, only about 18 kilometers north along the lake from Dali Old Town. The old town still feels authentic and is like a living gallery, showcasing the impressive artistry and culture of the Bai people.
It makes for a great stop on the way up to Shaxi Old Town too, which is perhaps my favourite place in Dali prefecture.

I've been to the Stone Forest many times and although when entering the park it may feel a bit like a tourist trap, there's areas in the back that, even during high season, are usually extremely quiet and can be explored without being surrounded by the crowds.
The landscape is unique and different from many nearly areas that also feature karst rock formations. Definitely worth a visit for those who haven't been yet.

Five stars for focussing on healthy foods. Homemade live sauerkraut, lots of dishes with quinoa, chia seeds, avocado, and tons of other superfoods mixed to create a tasty and healthy cuisine. I hope this is only the beginning of a new wave of alternative food options in the city.

One of the better options in Lijiang for a western meal. Had a set menu through meituan for only 99 yuan that included a very decent steak and onion soup. The environment is spacious and nicely designed with the restaurant being conveniently located in between the InterContinental and LUX hotel inside of the old town. We were not drinking, but they looked like having an impressive wine collection. 5 stars if they improve on speed and service level.

Sofitel is easily one of Kunming's top hotels now, featuring one of the best locations, in between the city center and the popular Dianchi Lake area.
The views from any of its rooms, as well as the buffet restaurant are quite stunning, offering previously unseen panoramas over the whole of Kunming.
There's a bar on the 50th floor, although currently it still has some work to do to be able to compare itself with similar 'skybars' in Shanghai or Beijing.

Charcuterie: Taking food safety into one's own hands
发布者I fully agree with Colin's point made in the last paragraph. I've been a vegetarian for a few years, mainly because I did want to know where my food comes from and those findings proved to be far from pleasant for both animal and consumer. Sticking your head in the sand surely doesn't change anything.
I'll admit I wouldn't be too keen on following Colin's example, but I definitely admire his deed. Otherwise, I believe knowing the origins of our foodstuff is desirable (and challenging!) at the least.
Also looking forward to have a taste of the resulting products!
