FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about traveling to China
What currency does China use?
It’s the Chinese Yuan (CNY), sometimes called Renminbi (RMB).
When is the best time to visit China?
Generally, spring (March-May) and autumn (September-October) are great times to visit China. The weather’s sweet, not too hot, and perfect for exploring.
What is the weather like in China?
It’s a HUGE country, so weather goes wild! Think sizzling summers, freezing winters (especially north), and mild springs/autumns. Check the forecast for your specific cities before you pack.
Do I need a visa to travel to China?
Yep, most foreign nationals usually need a visa. Your visa requirements can change according to your citizenship. Check out our handy visa guide for more.
What is ATM access like in China?
ATMs are easy to find in major cities, but mobile payments (WeChat Pay & Alipay) are usually the norm in China. In more rural areas, an ATM could be difficult to come across.
Do you tip in China?
Nope, tipping isn’t generally a thing in China (and can even be seen as a bit odd).
How many days do you need to see China?
For the highlights like Beijing, Xi’an, and Shanghai, 10-14 days is a solid start for first-timers. If you want to dive deeper or hit more regions, two to three weeks is even better.
What should I pack for a trip to China?
Comfy walking shoes are a must! Layered clothing is smart for all the varied climates. Don’t forget any personal meds, a portable power bank, and a travel adapter.
Can you drink tap water in China?
It’s best to avoid drinking tap water in China. Stick to bottled water for drinking and even for brushing your teeth to be safe. Most hotels provide complimentary bottles.
Is internet access good in China?
Yes, but here’s the kicker: China has the “Great Firewall.” This means many apps like Google, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Facebook are blocked. Get an eSIM or VPN set up before you arrive to stay connected.
What adaptor do I need for China?
China uses Type A (two flat pins), Type C (two round pins), and Type I (three flat pins, often angled). A universal travel adapter is your best friend here.
