Forums > Living in Kunming > Harassed by a 'japanese' man?

@momokaclub: Sorry to hear about this... I'd suggest not posting important personal information like your phone number or email in GoKunming's classifieds - or anywhere else on the internet. Once this info is public, anyone can harass you if they so wish...

The way GoKunming's classified system works, people who want to respond to your ad can do so without learning your phone number or email address (unless you include it in your ad). They can only learn your email address if you respond to their email.

It's southwest of the intersection of Qingnian Lu and Huancheng Nan Lu, where the old Luosiwan wholesale market was located, but also including a vast stretch of land stretching southward.

Forums > Living in Kunming > expat population in Kunming

At the risk of offending people by addressing the original topic of this forum thread, I was told last year when registering at my local paichusuo that there are around 14,000 foreigners in Kunming, including people from HK and Taiwan, with Vietnamese being the largest foreign population.

The number seemed a bit big at the time, but now I feel like it might not be too far off.

As for the whole religion cage match going on in this thread, not only is it wildly off-topic, it's not really going anywhere. This forum section exists so that people can share useful information, if you want to get into a flame war, there are plenty of other websites for that.

Congratulations to Michelle He and Zhong Yue, who were the first two readers to correctly answer that Ashima (阿诗玛) was the Yunnanese heroine who legend says became one of the pillars at Stone Forest.

Thanks to Canaan Day Spa for providing the hand treatments and to all the women who responded. Look out for more giveaways on GoKunming in the future!

We have just been notified by the Kunming Tigers that the match has been moved from Kunming Stadium to Tuodong Stadium at 99 Dongfeng Dong Lu. The match will still start at 2:15pm. Spectators should go to the stadium's second floor and enter through gate 14.

Snapshot: Shaxi

@voltaire: You're right, Shibao Mountain is deserving of a mention in any Shaxi travel piece. We mentioned Shibao Mountain in our earlier Shaxi travel feature:

www.gokunming.com/en/blog/item/1937/getting_away_shaxi

I'd have included photos of the grottoes in that post, but as you know, taking photos there is not allowed.

As the "Snapshot" in the title of this post suggests, this piece is more of a short photo essay than it is a comprehensive travel feature.

@JLG: If coffee plantations do significantly reduce the amount of tea grown in Pu'er, it is likely to only lead to higher tea prices followed by increased tea planting and another tea bubble.

Four stars for a great restaurant with friendly staff.

I give Tusheng Shiguan a fifth star for its goal of promoting environmentally sound food production.

My favorite Tengchong-style restaurant in Kunming. Their ersi and erkuai are trucked over from Tengchong and are the real deal — Kunming ersi and erkuai do not compare.

The restaurant itself is a bit jumbled, but there are a couple of tables outside in the courtyard that are nice to sit at when the weather's pleasant.

Don't believe them when they say they don't have lufu.

Tom and Jiajia have been baking up a storm lately. Thanks to them I have delicious sourdough bread to toast on the space heater in the office.

The Bircher muesli is probably the healthiest and most delicious breakfast around.

Pound for pound, one of the best little Western restaurants in China. 佳佳万岁

Just had gnocchi in mushroom sauce and a glass of wine for dinner on the balcony in mid-January. Awesome.
