I’ve travelled to Australia and Thailand and loved them both. Had a good time and always felt safe. Probably because everyone in these countries speaks english. Should China be my next choice or should I go somewhere else in the Far East?

  1. Singapore is the best place to go in the Far East. They speak English, there are a lot of tropical plants, great downtown entertainment and its easy to get into and out of.

    If you do go to China, try to take some English-speaking bus tours. They will cost a little more but you will get to meet some other English speaking people. Before you go, get the name of the hotel you will be staying in written in Chinese to hand to the taxi driver. Try to get the taxis that are in the taxi stand. I don’t recommend you going in a taxi where someone approaches you at the airport. The Great Wall of China is in Beijing, that’s really the best thing to do while you are there.

  2. China’s bigger cities may be travel friendly for non-Mandarin versed travellers but most of the country demands a lot of visitors from restaurant menus to bus routes. You can’t be constantly popping into 4-star hotels or tourist bureau for help. India, Vietnam?

  3. You can get around. Take a language book, learn some phrases, be polite.
    My experiences in China have pleasant. Most of the people are polite, some are friendly, some are rude.

    Most of the tourists attracts have English speaking workers.

    When you learn a few Chinese symbols you can get around by reading the signs.

    China is a vast country with many things to visit.
    It is safe.
