Ancient wonders and futuristic skylines across a vast civilization.

Travel Guide

China spans thousands of years of history and some of the world's fastest-growing cities — the Great Wall and the Forbidden City in Beijing, the futuristic skyline of Shanghai, and the surreal sandstone peaks of Zhangjiajie further south. Most first-time visitors anchor a trip around Beijing and Shanghai, with a high-speed rail network making it easy to add other cities.

  • Valid international passport with at least 6 months validity and blank visa pages
  • China tourist (L) visa, including an in-person application and biometrics (arranged by Triple U Travel Consults)
  • Confirmed return flight and hotel booking, or invitation letter where required
