We went on a Friday and were able to get 2 lower berths in the morning. the N810 is a double-decker sleeper, with upper and lower berths on both the upper and lower bodies (generally the sleeper cars are upper, middle and lower), but the #1 and #2 we bought were located at the entrance to the upper door, a traditional triple-decker sleeper, which is more depressing.
2 Highways
Several major passenger terminals, such as Dongju, Nanyao, and Xiyuan, have more buses in better condition

★ Most of the buses in Kunming are clean and tidy (both exterior and interior), and some lines use higher-grade Shenwo buses. However, the bus stops are set up in an impersonal way, in the middle of the road (separated from the sidewalk by two motor vehicle lanes), and you have to cross two lanes of traffic to take a bus, which is rather thrilling.

The flavor of the rice noodles is good, but I feel that it is not worth 25 yuan, maybe we are expecting too much.
★ Jianxinyuan General Store is located on Baoshan Street (south of Nanping Street and a small road parallel to it), across the street is Xiangyun Street Snack City (the door opens on Xiangyun Street, Xiangyun Street is the Golden Cockerel Bimah Square is directly across from the east of Sanshijie Street and a small road parallel to it).

★ Located north of Dongfeng West Road, east of the Bank of China in the alley (no street signs, go in and then see is auspicious alley, reminiscent of the "Detective Dee" 3 "red nuns), the facade is very small, inside is quite large. Signature dish steam pot chicken (the name of the dish is "authentic steam pot chicken") 48 yuan, the casserole is smaller than expected, the flavor is not bad; charcoal grilled pork and mixed mushrooms bait block is also a review of the recommended dishes online, is also very good. But don't order tile baked tofu (seems to be the name), look quite good, a tile with a dozen pieces of tofu, but that tofu is not added any seasoning, difficult to eat ah, we unanimously elected it is the most difficult to eat a dish in 2008!
④ Xiangyun Street is a collection of snacks, located in the center of Kunming, near the Kunming Department Store.
The food in this area is mainly flavorful snacks, Nanqiang Street and Xiangyun Gourmet City, inclusive of dozens of Dian flavor snacks. Many of Kunming's traditional and long-established snack stores have opened their fronts here, including Nanlai Sheng Vietnamese Snacks, Jianxinyuan Bridge Rice Noodles, and so on.

Off the mushroom hot pot street in Kunming is very famous, almost everyone knows. We originally wanted to go to the downstairs introduction of the "old" (about 100 yuan for two people), but when we arrived at the door to find that there are tours there, the heart. We ate at Dian Mushroom King, which is a chain restaurant, there are two on the road. It's a chain, there are two on this road. And so many locals go there to eat, business is good. We ordered a local chicken pot base (small) for 48 RMB, which probably had almost half a chicken in it. The matsutake mushroom was 58 RMB and the fresh chicken brown was 48 RMB. The mushrooms were the more expensive ones in there, the other veggies were only $3 a piece. If four people go to the two hundred dollars will be able to get it done, it is worth a taste.
