A few Kunming signs

What a polite note. Perhaps, too polite...

It sounds quite normal to me.

I just love that you live in "Star of Spring City - Machine Shop". Reminds me of my days in "City of Eternal Love - Sewage Division"

It's kind of a nice little place at the end of a blind alley. Not much traffic noise, built around a courtyard, pond with fish and small footbridge. Locals still refer to it as "The Old Machinery Hotel" but now it's officially "Spring City," which does indeed have a better ring.
