      High quality trains, metro systems and uber. Similar standard to Japan. Hotels, food and transport even cheaper than Bali.

    I just got back from China,

    Pros:
    Super safe
    No scams
    Payment is easy
    Easy to get around (Highspeed rail, extensive metro) / Taxis are cheap
    Super clean

    Cons:
    Need to know how to book particular things like museums etc

    Demand from Chinese tourist alone is more than what international tourist can bring, some museums are hard to book as there's probably a million other chinese folks trying to see it too.

        Nope easy, print you booked itinerary and goto the center with filled form and appointment.
        Pickup in a week, easy as pie. Easier if you have an invite from a chinese national (no itinerary required) but plenty of people there. If you have issues you just rebook and comeback another day.

          @TightAl: I did mine a few weeks ago.

          They're not picky about having a perfectly filled out itinerary. There's only 5 lines in the visa application anyway, so you couldn't even put in more than 5 locations !

          Date, city, hotel. And print out the hotel confirmation booking. I only had about half of my dates covered with hotel bookings and they didn't even query it.

          Most chinese hotels are free cancellation. Heaps on trip.com and they make it easy to print out a 1 page hotel confirmation booking.

  Before you book, make sure that you check out what you need to do to get a visa. My mother is flying over in a few weeks to visit my brother in Shanghai. She has gone over at least a dozen times to do so over the last 20 years. In the past getting a visa has been trivial, but this time however, to get a visa she had to provide a huge amount of information (birth certificate, marriage certificate, bank details, where she is going and staying, and also all of my brothers details and HEAPS more) AND then sit an interview in person at the consulate to be approved. We live in northern NSW, so she had to fly down to Sydney to do the interview, and then fly back later to pick up the visa IN PERSON.

  We are absolutely nobody of interest, zero reasons why the Chinese would require more than any other visitor and the visa is just a bog standard tourist visa for a 2 week visit. This has been a harrowing experience for mum, so just make sure you know what is required before you go booking.

    interview and pick up visa in person is negative, expect that I think its normal for VISA. Have a look what need for visa 600 if foreigner to visit Australia.

      Not sure what you mean by "normal for VISA" it certainly has never been required before for any of my families trips to China. Maybe it's a hangover from COVID restrictions that they have not sorted out? We are just lucky that my parents are retired, so mum has the time (and means) to fly down to Sydney to sit an interview, and back to pick up the visa in person.

      I have no idea what a visa 600 is, I can only speak to what we experienced, and we have never had to do this before. My family is lucky enough to be well traveled, but none of us have never experienced such a rigmarole to obtain a tourist visa to visit any country, anywhere in the world before. Its baffling.

      I am not being negative, just pre-warning people that might get caught out if they think its the same as it was pre-COVID.

        You are absolutely right about the Chinese visa center and the application process. However, I must say I feel like it was purposely designed that way so people from the world can experience what a Chinese person would encounter when this person is planning to travel basically to any developed country.

          Australia $110
          Canada $150
          USA $330
          Other $100

        Sorry I'm not meaning you being negative, just would like say don't be too surprised about the visa application stuff.

        My wife is an Aussie citizen and she's pregnant. We tried to get her mum a tourist visa to come visit. You wouldn't believe the amount of info the Australian government wanted. And guess what? Got denied in the end, just because her month from oversea missed one phone call.

        I'm not trying to compare how hard it is to get visas in different countries or anything. Just saying, you should have realistic expectations when it comes to the info they're gonna ask for.

          @Misasagi: I was not comparing the difficulty of obtaining a visa for visiting China to the requirements for Australia. I was making people aware of the difficulty of obtaining a visa for visiting China now, versus visiting China in the past.

          I thought I should post because my family has been dealing with this right now, and almost nobody that books these flights will be expecting it. The actual flights were booked for us by my cousin who has been a travel agent for +25 years and she has never seen anything like this for visitors to China.

        You should be positive on thinking this kind of stuff. Every county has the right change VISA conditions if there's proper reason. My room mate just sponsor his family mumber to stay in Australia for longer than 3mos period. Goverment asked him for $9500AUD as a security bond. If not paid, the visa will get rejected. And they reserve the right to ask for any amount by putting '(but we can ask for any amount)' on the webpage. lmao.

          @Derek Unbelievable: What does "You should be positive on thinking this kind of stuff." even mean? When governments change stuff to make life more difficult, we call it out, that is what we do here in Australia. US, UK, Japan, Indonesia, etc it doesn't matter. The US has often ridiculous border entry stuff too, but that is because most citizens around the world want to emigrate there, just like here.

          Again, I am not comparing China to anywhere else, I am comparing the massive change in visa requirements for China now vs China of prior visits.

          I have no problems with them changing the rules, that is their prerogative, as long as people know before they spend $$$ on booking flights that visa requirements for Aussies will be FAR more exhaustive than it has been in the past.

            @dtpearson: Life is always difficult mate. Being positive means you can still be happy when things getting harder. This is exactly what it is need when the world getting worse after covid. The visa rejection rate of Chinese visitor to Oz has raised from 10% to 22% after covid as well. People need to forget the past and embrase the future. If the future is harder, then work harder to make things happen. Stick to the past and being frustrating won't help at all.

          @TightAl:

          1. Again, there is no problem with getting a visa being difficult to get, (and we live in Byron Bay, so pretty happy with our "life choices" :-)

          My original post, and all subsequent posts are about the CHANGE in visa requirements for visitors to China, that basically nobody will be aware of when booking these flights. I am just trying to pre-warn people. We have visited China many times, and were very experienced in the process of getting a visa, it was not difficult before.

          This time my parents had to fill out mountains of forms, take 5 sets of photos (the first 4 sets taken by professional passport photo places were rejected for various reasons), fly to Sydney to front up to the Chinese consulate and wait with 200+ people for 2 hours past their allotted interview time, sit a gruelling invasive interview, wait a week to be assessed, and then fly back to Sydney to pick up the visa in person. ALL of that is fine, if that was clear BEFORE they booked tickets, but it was not. Every time they have done this before visa requirements have been reasonably simple and painless, but not any more.

          2 . No, that is not allowed, we have friends that could have done this, but it was not allowed, it must be picked up IN PERSON. We even provided a prepaid postage envelope that they just had to put the visa documents in and send, and they refused to do this. There was a will, but not a way.
