Travel Tips for China

Posted on 26 December 2018 by (0)

China is one of the best travel destinations in the world with plenty of attractions for both solo travelers and group tours. Travis and Dylan over at MT Gutters of San Antonio said once in a youtube interview that if you are planning a trip to China, below are some pointers to keep in mind for a smooth and remarkable adventure.

Be Very Keen When Shopping

China is a hub for all kinds of products and, it is easy to be duped if you are a visitor. Once you make a purchase, the item belongs to you. However, you should first check the particular product that you are buying to make sure it meets your expectations. Avoid products that sellers say will be delivered later after payment.

Some Tourist Attractions are overrated

Although China is a beautiful country with several tourist attractions, some are given so much unwarranted attention. In fact, the reality on the ground might not be what you expected. The most popular tourist attractions are often packed during mid morning and mid afternoon.

Learn a Few Words in Mandarin

Chinese people are generally friendly but, if you want a warm reception, try addressing the locals in Mandarin. As you speak with the locals, war a broad and warm smile.

Avoid Traveling To China during Their Official Holidays

The Chinese people are very proud and usually come out in huge numbers to honor their holidays. So, expect thousands at the tourist attractions during official Chinese holidays. So, be sure to check the dates for their holidays and plan your itinerary outside their holiday calendar to have a great adventure.

The Internet is censored in China

You will obviously want to use the internet and social media to share stories of your trip in China. Since the internet is censored, you will need to have a VPN in order to access sites like Facebook and blogs.

China is a great travel destination but, with certain restrictions that might make your trip a nightmare. To have the best time in China, it is advisable to first do a little research so you have an idea of what to expect.
