Points to Remember Before Visiting China
- You cannot use or access WhatsApp, Google, Facebook, Youtube, Google Maps, all American / US websites etc. as they are strictly banned in China. You can use VPN software/app to access these sites.
- You can use China web browser (www.baidu.com) for web searching in place of Google.
- WeChat can be used in place of WhatsApp for chat and calls with family, friends and relatives.
- Language is the main concern in China as 99% people speak only Chinese they don’t speaks and understand English. So it’s better to learn few Chinese words.
- China is not the best choice for Asthma patients and those who are allergic to pollution as air pollution is high in China due to numbers of production and factories in China.
- Another big concern is for Vegetarian people, you can hardly find any vegetarian dish in China so it’s better to carry some packed food item with you while visiting China. Few vegetarian dishes found in China are French fries, fried potatoes (this dish contains high amount of garlic), tea, coffee etc.
