Welcome to my ultimate China travel guide! My name is YenKid.
Greetings from China. I’m Chinese and also a native English speaker.
This website contains my personal tips for China travel and remove your worries about travelling as a first-time visitor.
How is this website different?
I have handwritten an original collection of 180+ practical focused guides and personal insights about China travel. Yes, entirely handwritten by me. In 2026.
My guides contain the best of local and foreign perspectives about China travel.
Why should you rely on my guides?👇🏻
You will read honest, independent opinions based on my own experience. No one has paid me to write anything. I have no team.
I’ve worked both as a city transport designer and in Chinese restaurants. So the tips you get here are top-quality, reliable, and unique.
I have family and friends abroad who travel to China every year, so I keep updated with the challenges faced by current tourists.
There is no AI content here. So much of that stuff is either wrong or incomplete. Not to mention, it sounds horrible.
I’m not a tour guide and not associated with any tour agencies.
Let’s get you started! ⬇️

Who am I?
I am Chinese, but was raised in an English speaking country. I can speak 6 languages to varying degrees of fluency.
Growing up abroad gave me the opportunity to experience China both as a local and an outsider. I too faced many of the same problems that many foreign tourists experience, so I’m in the perfect position to give you the some of the best tips available.
My mission
I started this website with a mission: to provide essential information to visitors to China, to make your journeys as seamless as possible, to help make your China experience the best it can be!
A lot of the content is based off my own travel notes that I have used to help family and friends. I can appreciate the foreigner’s perspective of travelling around China better than most, while having deep insider knowledge about everyday life in China.
I know that it is not easy for people outside of China to find up-to-date and relevant information. I hope this website can help guide your journey and solve common problems, giving you greater confidence in taking the plunge and enjoy what China has to offer.
I hope to play my part in enhancing the connection and understanding between China and the rest of the world.
I will continue to develop new features to help more people like you travel easily across China while discovering the magic of the country.
I place less focus on inspirational content compared to most websites, because I believe many people would benefit from practical advice.
I write with the aim of providing relevant, up-to-date tips to improve your overall travel experience. My aim is to act as a valuable resource both before and after you arrive in China.
This website is entirely self-funded by me only.

Little Intelligent Helper can help!
Little Intelligent Helper is an AI search tool. You can use it if you require information about something more specific about your travels to China that has not been covered above. Note the answers have not been written by me. It is powered by the DeepSeek AI engine, which forms an answer based off various Internet sources (not including this website). The answers are therefore independent of this website, and may not be entirely accurate. You should refer to my personal recommendations as the first port of call - it is much more likely to be up-to-date and relevant.For more detailed answers like planning an itinerary or asking about the history of a city, check out the detailed AI version using the link below:
