Frequently asked questions about hostels in China

  • What are the most affordable attractions for backpackers to visit?

    For budget travellers, China offers incredible value. The Great Wall (specifically sections outside of Beijing like Mutianyu), numerous ancient towns like Pingyao and Lijiang (though accommodation can add up in Lijiang), and many smaller temples and pagodas throughout the country are relatively inexpensive to visit. Free attractions include many parks and walking tours of cities. Remember to factor in transport costs, which can vary widely.
  • What are the best hostels in China?

    Among the hostels in China, Hantang Inn Hostel Xi'an, Lijiang Desti Youth Park Hostel and Xin Ji Yuan Hostel are the most popular ones.

  • Which airports handle most of the traffic to and from China?

    Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) and Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG) are the busiest, handling a significant portion of international flights. Other major hubs include Hong Kong International Airport (HKG), Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport (CAN), and Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport (SZX).
  • What are the best hostels with a pool in China?

  • What currency do you need for China?

    The official currency is the Renminbi (RMB), also known as the yuan (CNY). It's advisable to exchange currency at official banks or exchange bureaus to get the best rates. Credit cards are not as widely accepted as in some other countries, so carrying sufficient cash, especially in smaller towns and rural areas, is recommended.
  • What are the best hostels with a jacuzzi in China?

  • How easy is it to navigate the roads in China?

    Navigating roads in China can be challenging for those unfamiliar with the system. Traffic can be dense, especially in major cities. Using ride-hailing apps like Didi Chuxing is convenient and relatively inexpensive, while public transport is generally efficient and affordable. Learning basic Mandarin phrases for directions can also be helpful.
  • What are the best hostels for families and kids in China?

    The best hostels for families and kids in China are Hantang Inn Hostel Xi'an, Lijiang Desti Youth Park Hostel and The Silk Road Travelers Hostel.

  • How can travellers best respect local customs while in China?

    Respecting local customs is crucial for a positive experience. Using chopsticks correctly, waiting your turn in queues, and avoiding loud conversations in public places are important. Being mindful of noise levels, particularly in temples and other religious sites, is also appreciated. It's considered polite to accept a business card with both hands and to study it before putting it away.
  • What are the best pet friendly hostels in China?

  • Which traditional festivals define the spirit of China?

    The Spring Festival (Lunar New Year) is arguably the most significant, a time for family reunions and celebrations. The Mid-Autumn Festival, with its mooncakes and family gatherings, is another major event. Other important festivals include the Dragon Boat Festival and the Lantern Festival.
  • What are the best hostels with parking in China?

  • What are the key emergency contacts for medical or safety concerns in China?

    For medical emergencies, dial 120. For police assistance, dial 110. It's advisable to have these numbers readily available and to inform your hotel or accommodation of your itinerary.
  • What are the best areas to spend a week in China?

    A week allows for a more in-depth exploration. Consider a journey exploring the ancient city of Xi'an (Terracotta Army), followed by a trip to Guilin and Yangshuo for stunning karst landscapes, or a cultural immersion in Beijing and surrounding areas, including the Great Wall.
  • What are the best areas to spend a weekend in China?

    For a weekend, focus on a single city or region. Shanghai offers a blend of modern skyscrapers and traditional neighbourhoods. Beijing provides access to the Forbidden City and the Temple of Heaven. Suzhou, known for its canals and classical gardens, is another excellent choice.
  • Are there specific regions in China known for great weather?

    Southern China, particularly Yunnan province, enjoys a mild climate year-round. Coastal areas tend to have milder winters than inland regions. However, China's climate is diverse, with significant regional variations; research the specific region you plan to visit carefully.
