Go eLong (online travel agency) http://www.elong.net/hotels/details.aspx?m=rate&hotelid=52301032 or Holiday Inn site http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/hi/1/en/hotel-directory/china/chengdu If you want to find some really cheap hotel (not close to the venue), go Ctrip to find one you like http://hotels.english.ctrip.com/Domestic/SearchHotel.aspx Some other recommendation from WCG site: http://wikitravel.org/en/Chengdu#Sleep | ||

Ask someone who knows Chinese to book a room for you over the internet (no deposit needed), print out the confirmation receipt and give it to the taxi driver and you're done  . | ||

You have to buy a ticket for the finals. RMB50 ($7.5) for one day pass or RMB150 ($22) for full 4-day pass. This sounds odd to me. Can't really recall any finals that asked for paid tickets before. Anyway, this is what I got from the organizers. Go buy the tickets at: http://www.ticketmaster.cn/event_en_2146.html edit, tried the online ordering myself, no any foreign credit card is supported, no VISA, no Mastercard -_-;; Guess foreign spectators have to buy tickets on site. | ||

Last year, in germany, tickets had to be paid too. Getting a Press Pass was pretty easy though. | ||

About 2400km and 36 hours on the train ;o Take a flight in Shenzhen, it should be cheap since it's not the tour season. Got round trip tickets Chengdu/Shenzhen for RMB1000 few months ago. | ||

Got round trip tickets Chengdu/Shenzhen for RMB1000 few months ago. I was just judging on whether or not it would be worth it. I'd also have to get a mainland visa, which is like $130 because I'm American, and I'd only be able to make it for Saturday and Sunday because of school... Probably won't end up going, oh well. | ||
