Dragon Boat World Championships OCT 2017

Well, as I know, the Dragon Boat World Champions was held in Dianchi Lake in last Sep. This October, it will be held in Hanyuan County, Sichuan and Funing County, Jiangsu Provinces.

We are in the city now and staying at the Holiday Inn (we are from melbourne). About to go to the Lake today and don't think it is too far from hotel. Holiday Inn is great.

As in......easy to access by bus or taxi (not able to walk there)

I am on the US team, and we are headed there in October for the World Championship Dragon Boat races.

Hi Margie, got to the World Championships last month and met Richie from the USA team. I was the crazy Aussie supporter in the yellow and green shirt shouting "Come on Aussie, come on!". Hope you enjoyed your time in KM - it was a great event. Cheers, Gary

Thanks, Mile, it was held in KM last month and I have just returned. It was a great event. Cheers, Gary

Hi Helen, thanks for your reply. Initially went to a hotel in central KM and, while it didn't look too far on the map, it took hours in the traffic to get to lake Dian Chi. Finished up relocating to Soluxe, not far from the Soffitel, and this was much better - only 15 minutes by taxi or 30 by bus (depending upon the traffic of course). Hope your trip was good. Cheers, Gary
