From food to routes to hidden gems — curated for curious travelers.
ChinaTrip is a local culture and route guide for travelers worldwide exploring China.
ChinaTrip is a bilingual Chinese-English platform for travelers worldwide. We curate travel notes and lifestyle stories from Chinese locals to help you discover authentic cities, cuisine, and cultural experiences. From Beijing's hutong culture to Chengdu's teahouse life, from Shanghai's modern metropolis to Xinjiang's natural landscapes, we present the Chinese way of travel.
The biggest difference between ChinaTrip and traditional travel websites is that we focus on presenting the most authentic local China travel experiences. Our content is not written by professional travel writers, but comes from real Chinese locals who grew up in Beijing's hutongs, live in Shanghai's alleyways, drink tea in Chengdu's teahouses, and run across Xinjiang's grasslands. These locals living in various Chinese cities reveal secrets that traditional travel guides won't tell you, using their unique perspectives and personal experiences.
From planning routes to tasting cuisine, from understanding culture to experiencing lifestyles, ChinaTrip offers more than just attraction introductions. We share how to stroll along Shichahai like a Beijinger, how to find the most authentic pan-fried buns in Shanghai's food streets, how to experience the leisurely ear cleaning in Chengdu's People's Park, and how to taste the most authentic lamb skewers in Xinjiang. These real-life scenarios and locals' daily experiences are the best way to understand China. Whether you're planning your first visit to China or want to explore specific cities in depth, ChinaTrip provides the most practical and authentic travel guides and inspiration.
