Shangrila is possible, but consider the absence of heating in most hostels. Roads to Deqin might be closed due to snowfall, and if open, dangerous.
On Renmin Donglu is the Tuodong-swimming pool, close to the provincial stadium. I don`t want to recommend this swimming pool though, because as a waiguoren you`d have to pay more than Chinese people, 30 yuan for a swim.
There is a big swimming pool on Dianchi Lu, but I haven`t been there yet.
Oj I`m too slow... next tuesday!
I often go to the piano place hedgepig mentioned. There is a big room with about 10 pianos, which is 95 percent of the time filled with children practicing as loud, long and monotonous as possible. There are also 3 or 4 smaller, soundproof rooms, that might be available during the quieter moments of the day. You`ll pay 5 kuai an hour. It`s the only place of its kind that I know of, but last year I tried to get access to the private piano rooms on the Yunda campus (part of the conservatory of music of Yunda), without success though. You might try again.
I play piano, guitar and bass/upright bass. I don`t own any of those at the moment though, but I know there are a lot of musical instruments at the Movie Bar. Maybe we all should meet there for a jam once?
