๐ŸŒ Independent Travel Guide ยท Est. 2025

China Explorer is an independent travel guide built for foreign visitors navigating China's newly expanded 240-hour visa-free transit policy. We cover the destinations, food, transport, and practical information that international travelers actually need.

Our Mission

China has opened its doors wider than at any point in recent history โ€” with 54+ nationalities now eligible for up to 10 days visa-free travel. Yet most English-language travel resources about China are outdated, overly cautious, or written without the perspective of actually living in and traveling around the country.

China Explorer exists to fix that. We write for curious, independent travelers who want to get beyond the surface and experience China authentically โ€” the real street food, the less-visited neighborhoods, the train journeys that connect ancient capitals.

What We Cover

  • Visa-free policy: Up-to-date information on China's 240-hour transit exemption
  • 6 major cities: Beijing, Shanghai, Xi'an, Chengdu, Guilin, Chongqing
  • Attractions: Individual guides with hours, prices, and insider tips
  • Restaurants: Specific recommendations with addresses in English and Chinese
  • Transport: Metro guides, high-speed rail, Didi, and payment setup
  • Practical tips: VPN, Alipay, SIM cards, and cultural etiquette

How We Make Money

China Explorer is supported by Google AdSense advertising. When you visit our pages, Google displays relevant advertisements. We do not accept paid placements, sponsored content, or affiliate commissions for our hotel or restaurant recommendations โ€” every recommendation is based on quality and relevance to foreign travelers.

Our Content Standards

All content on China Explorer is written or carefully reviewed for accuracy. We update information regularly as visa policies, prices, and opening hours change. If you spot an error or outdated information, please let us know.

We'd love to hear from you โ€” whether you've found an error, want to suggest a restaurant, or just want to share your China travel experience.
