I have seen the tiny fire pumps/engines in Lijiang, I have no idea how many there are, probably only two (just in case). There is a dedicated firehouse at one of the gates to the old city. The mini engines are like the mini road sweepers on Haigeng Daba. About 1.5 m wide. The are basically just a pump on wheels, they carry no water, and I assume pump from the streams that follow the streets.

I imagine if there are many people there, navigating the streets would be difficult. And a wheeled vehicle could not take the routes that have steps.

As Alex said, it could have been much worse.

A reasonable choice of lumber that has improved over time. Fancy hardwoods like walnut, and mahogany are in abundance. There are some plywood and rubber-wood boards available. There are also some kiln dried imported softwoods and merbao available. Some of the lumber is very green, so look for the kiln dried if you need stable timbers.

Echo everything said by others.
Breakfast great and the serve from 8am. Most other places say 9am and they still are not ready.
Sandwiches are cheap 22-32, and really packed full of filling. We got some sandwiches for a day out, the only mistake I made was ordering two, as this was too much. These are seriously good sangars, and they are wrapped in alu foil.

In fairness to Metro, they are a wholesalers, and not really a supermarket. Hence the need for a card, which can be got around.

They have improved in the year I have been away. They now carry a more consistent range of imported foodstuffs and they also seem to have sorted out the mported milk supply.

They have a wider range of electrical appliances now, there is a coice of more than one toast. There is also a better range of seasonal non foods, like clothes, shoes, garden furniture and camping gear.
