I recently learned that some people do Enter China illegally without a visa by means of the Local borders (Not international border) between China and Laos and Vietnam. Now I realize that China not only has a problem with (1) foreigners working illegally without a work permit but also (2) people entering China without a visa and (3) staying beyond the deadline of their visa.
In the end, more rules just make things more difficult for those of us who are here legally. I was glad to see that the govt will fine the employers who hire illegal workers.
This time, I am staying at least two full days, maybe more.
Ok, I know it's not too long, but I wanna enjoy it at it's most.
That'll be on july 27-28th (a week end).
Aum235 - I noticed this is your second post and you are still not in Kunming.
I will be travelling in Yunnan with a friend for two weeks. I guess this means 2 days in Kunming and 2 weeks in Yunnan.
I recommend you go to the Black Stone Forest which is only 6 km away from the Major Stone Forest. Jianchuan in Dali is out of the way and the 1000 Lion Mountain is a great hike with plenty to see and photograph. Jianshui in Honghe has a great old town which I like very much and it is on the way to Yuan Yang. Heijing and Nuodeng are 2 old Salt towns in Chuxiong and Dali respectively. I like the history, the old buildings and many old locals to photograph.
No results found.
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.

Only time will tell if there is an increase in earthquakes in this Fracking region. So far, Zhaotong is at the top of the list with 7 earthquakes.

Once a pariah, China's orange king now adapting to digital age
Posted by- Once convicted of embezzling.
- He was prosecuted for embezzling 1.1 billion yuan (US$174 million).
- serving three years of a life sentence.
- Chu is founder and CEO of a Yuxi-based fruit company.
- His orchard's success in breeding and growing specialty oranges has led to a common problem in China — copycat competitors.
A thief who does not like other thiefs - serves him right. Where did he get the money to start his fruit business? Obviously he stole more than what was initially believed and he was able to stash it where no one could get to it.
Why isn't this guy rotting in prison somewhere rather than getting rich again?
