China is now visa-free for Europeans: Take a high-speed train to futuristic cities and fabulous food
Packed with culture, cuisines and futuristic cities, now is the time to visit China for an unforgettable holiday this year.
dang that's kinda cool ngl
Neat. They should target women, they have significantly more say in holiday destination decisions and in my experience are considerably less brainwormed about big bad China compared to men.
Common women w
reminder to those traveling and happen to be chinese and paying through mainland Chinese apps and happen to be going to Macau, Macau uses its own payment service and sometimes not conpatible with the standard apps, so be sure to actually get local currency if you plan on going there else you might get into awkward situations where you cant pay someone.
Xi please, expand this, my people yearn for wonderful vacations. 😭
Pardon me if I'm being dumb, but why invite westerners more into the country? Last thing China needs is a bunch of nazi filth to invade the country and risk harming anyone.
This is like asking why Europe wants Asian tourists and assuming it would make Europe communist. That's not how it works. Instead, there will be a cottage industry catering to English speakers and they will not meaningfully change anything outside of that.
It's for tourism money, and the people racist enough to kill a Chinese person for being Chinese will 99.9% self select and choose a different destination.
Someone willing to visit China probably isn't quite that level of hateful, and if they are, they'll be doing it to just lie about the country (like the youtube "China watcher" white supremacists do.) Having more non-nazi people visit will make it clear to Europeans that their own media's claims about China are just lies.
And the western media's only retort will just be "Don't ever visit China, just trust us on what it is really like and if you do go, don't believe your own lying eyes." which only works on the exceptionally brainwormed (who were never going to change their minds anyway)
I expect that westerners who actually go to visit China would be the ones that aren't rabid xenophobes. Overall, I think it's a very good idea for people in the west to actually see China first hand. This is the best way to undermine western propaganda about China.
I'm guessing the easiest way to break the relentless western anti-China propaganda is to encourage people to see for themselves. Also, crackkker-money.

does this article even mention the countries or is it that bad
"Citizens of Austria, Belgium, Hungary and Luxembourg will now also be allowed to enter China without a visa, along with citizens of France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and Switzerland."

Hilariously China makes it incredibly difficult/annoying for Israelis to get a visa
👏

Agree about the high speed train, disagree about the food :)
disagree about the food
most wrong take on the internet
Very hot at least, nuclear take, I admire it
I wish I knew how it was possible for someone to travel China and dislike the food.
The article also mentions an absolute must - mapo tofu.
Although, I had the benefit of spending most of my time there in Sichuan
There's definitely Chinese food that's better than others (ironically I can't stand mapo personally) but if you can't find something from the dozens of dishes from each of the dozens of cuisines that you like, your tongue is just defective.
Bro I'm in BRICS why tf do I not have visa free access?
i am throthing at the fucking mouth holy shit
