Recently, China travel videos from multiple travelers on YouTube, TikTok, and X have been hot, and we've gotten a peek at the beautiful landscapes of China, which are mesmerizing, and as the Chinese government continues to expand its visa waiver policy, it's a great time to travel to China, and how to get a perfect tour of China is what I'm going to introduce to you.

How to get the transit visa-free policy

Currently, all of China's ports open to the outside world implement a 24-hour transit visa-free policy for people from all over the world.

Application conditions: Holding a valid international travel document, set the seat of the joint ticket to take the international voyage of the aircraft, ships, trains from China to the third country or region in transit, in China within the stay of not more than 24 hours and do not leave the port, can be exempted from the visa; such as the need to leave the port, should be to the entry and exit of the port of entry and exit of the border inspection authorities to apply for a temporary entry permit.

72 hours or 144 hours visa-free transit

At present, 41 ports open to the outside world located in 19 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government) implement the policy of 72-hour or 144-hour visa-free transit for people from 54 countries. (For countries and ports open to the outside world, please check on your own)

Persons from 54 countries who are in transit from China to a third country (region) with valid international travel documents and a combined ticket with a date and seat determined within a limited period of time may submit an application for a visa-free transit to the entry/exit border control authorities at the ports in the cities where China implements the visa-free transit policy, and the entry/exit border control authorities will handle the temporary entry procedures for them, with their visa-free stay counting from 00:00 of the next day of their entry.

Travel Tips for China

If you are visiting China for the first time, I would recommend the following cities: Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Shanghai, Beijing, Changsha, Chengdu, Chongqing, Xi'an; if you want to get to know the cultural side of China: Beijing (the capital of China), Xi'an (a historical city); if you like good food and a social rhythm: Guangzhou (for a lighter palate), Changsha, Chengdu, Chongqing (for a heavier palate, spicy); if you want to be international: Shanghai (the largest city of China), Hangzhou (a technologically advanced city), Shanghai (the largest city of China). Shanghai (the largest city in Mainland China), Hangzhou (technologically bustling).

Cell phone software download: We recommend downloading Alipay, a mobile payment app. In today's Chinese society, almost all payment scenarios have been covered by electronic payment, and Alipay now supports the binding of Visa cards, which can be used in all payment scenarios in China, large and small. At the same time in China by bus and subway, you can also directly use the QR code to ride.

Emergency numbers in China: 110 for police; 119 for fire; 120 for medical care; 122 for traffic accidents. It is recommended that you record the phone number of your country's embassy in China at the same time, just in case.

These are my personal suggestions, I hope you have a good time.
