More and more people are traveling to China. Many first-time visitors to China often ask us for the best way to plan trips to China. This article will attempt (尝试) to give you advice on how to plan a trip to China.
● Plan your time well
The best time to travel to China is between May and November because the winter months between December and March can be very cold, especially towards Northern and Western China.
Avoid (避免) planning any kind of travel on the three golden weeks in China:
①Two weeks during Chinese New Year (late January or early February each year).
②The first week of May (May Day holidays).
③The first week of October (the National Day holidays).
Most hotels, restaurants and sights can be crowded on these weeks.
● Plan your interests
Ask yourself what you would like to see in China. Try to travel on a theme to make your trip more interesting.
If you are interested in modern China, and want to see how modern this country has been, plan visits to places like Shanghai, Shenzhen, Xiamen, Hong Kong and Macao. There are also famous modern restaurants, buildings and shopping centers for tourists to experience.
If you are interested in the history and culture of China, plan visits to Beijing, Xi'an and Nanjing.
● Plan your way of travel
If you have time, plan a slow trip through China using local transport (buses/trains) and understand the true sight, sound and smell of China. Live with the Chinese, eat with the Chinese and even have parties with the Chinese.
