Chinese address help please .......

[alidoll]

Hello, I was in Kunming this summer and stayed at the Camellia Hotel. I made friends with the woman in the beauty shop there where I got massages etc. She was a lovely woman, but did not speak a word of English and I did not speak any Chinese.

Through the international language of sign, she wanted me to take photos with my digital camera of the salon and ones of me and her since we laughed a lot together (not really knowing what we were laughing at !)

I have had them developed and want to send them to her but am concerned that if I address it in English, it will not get there.

Could someone please type the address below in Chinese and I will copy it to word, make it larger and attach it to the envelope.

Beauty Shop

Camellia Hotel

NO.96 East Dongfeng Road

Kunming

Yunnan

China

Thank you very much - you will make a Chinese lady very happy when she gets the pictures !!

I did quick google of "Camellia Hotel" and found it at the bottom of this page: http://www.sinohotelguide.com/kunming/camellia/index.html

I typed it out anyway

The address is:

(add 美容室，it means beauty shop)

昆明茶花宾馆

昆明市东风东路 96号

Kunming city, Yunnan province, [mainland] China : 昆明市，云南省，中国大陆

Good luck!

Thanks for that Yuchi, much appreciated

I'd say the first one, by stBLCU, is best. Chinese addresses go from big to small, country - province - city - street, not like in the West where it's from small to big. Also, when addressing a letter to China it's not necessary, and maybe even a bad idea, to say you mean 'mainland' China.

Thanks again and to StBLCU, I did not see you reply yesterday because of the advertising - so a personal thank you

The letter went away today with Chinese and English on it - so let's hope it gets there !

Sorry for misleading you alidoll, and thank you for pointing that out, Lu.
