Forums > Travel Yunnan > Long train ride

Of course I care. I am concerned when a mother of 2 children who has been in China for some time needs advice on what food to give her children. As I mentioned earlier, it is crucial that a mother receive as much information and training as possible. I am glad to see that you are getting good advice from other forum members for your 2 day train trip.

I did not reply earlier because I was busy. Today and tomorrow is Gao Kao testing and my wife has kids taking GK tests today.

Yes, the nutrition of children age 1 - 7 is very important during the formative years so it is crucial that a mother receive as much information and training from mostly older men concerning this topic. Glad to see that you are vigilent and replied to my post within 3 minutes.

Yuan Mou - Tulin in Chuxiong should not be confused with the Red soil of Dongchuan, Kunming.

You can go by bus from Kunming and stop at Wuding, Chuxiong (Lion Mountain) this is a good place to see for a few hours and then get back on the bus and go to Tulin. Wuding (Lion Mountain) is the halfway point and it is 94 km (2 hours) northwest of Kunming. The Soil Forest (Tu Lin) includes two separate areas. Wu Mao is where most tourists visit and it is located 40 km north of Yuan Mou. You can rent a minivan to Wu Mao for 60-100 Yuan. Xin Hua is located 60 km west of Yuan Mou and you can rent a minivan for 100-200 YUAN.

Or you can take a bus from Kunming to Chuxiong and then from Chuxiong to Heijing, Chuxiong - www.gokunming.com/[...]
From Heijing you can take the train to Yuan Mou on the following day (1000-1100).

Or you can take the slow train from Kunming to Heijing and then onto Yuan Mou. From Kunming to Heijing is 5 hours by train. It is slow but it is a nice ride (may be crowded because of the holiday).

You have a couple of options depending on your schedule. Bus from Kunming to Yuan Mou is the fastest way to get there. All highway - about 3 hours. NW Bus Station - Puji Road.

deposit of 99 yuan.. deposit is automatically returned upon each completed payment.

All the 99 yuan deposits can NOT make up for what I saw today during my 40 minute bus ride.

3 bikes which had the seat completely removed and 1 bike that had the from wheel removed.

Cost of repairs and cost of sending workers to do the repairs - Haha!

What did I see today?

Saw 2 OFO workers wearing yellow vests with letters OFO on the back repairing over a dozen bikes in a street corner near my house.

Saw 2 OFO bikes chained near the rear entrance of Wicker basket. Apparantly they are now OWNED by 2 workers there.

I predict that OFO will be out of business in 3 months. Once a person gets the combination to a bike, it becomes private property and the company can no longer get any revenue from that bike.

Kids are smart and have time and they knnow that people seldom turn the dial of the combination or they just turn the 2 center dials. Within a few minutes of fiddling with a lock anyone can usually get the combination at which time the bike becomes private property. This is why most of the bikes I see kids riding are the yellow OFO bikes.

With no GPS there is no way to track these bikes - Hehe!

I wonder how many people who have commented here have actually used this program here in Kunming.

Bikes used in other provinces or in other countries is NOT the same as here in Kunming.

Since the bikes are scattered everywhere and people are hiding the bikes so they can have sole use of it - how can any person find a bike to use. Unless one is willing to walk long distances and has already paid to be able to use all 3 types of bikes - this program is absolutely useless.

I caught a slumdog hiding a bike in my garden 2 days ago. I see plenty of bikes all over the city so there are plenty to choose from but hundreds of the bikes are intentioanlly hidden after use so they can be used at the doorstep the following day.

In my Resd Qtr I saw 3 bikes totally destroyed - 1 had a flat, other had rear wheel missing and other had handle bars bent. How does anyone bend handle bars unless it is done intentionally. This is just 2 months after the program has begun.

The bikes need to be put in a bike rack where they are easily accessible to all as is in many other civilized cities here in China like Gansu and Guangxi. I am sure there are others.

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.
