Other Lost & found Shanghai (pudong) airport

• Upvotes

A couple of days ago I lost my bag at Shanghai airport. My bag is allready found and is at the lost & found departement. But I don’t know how to ship it back to the Netherlands.

I saw a few sites that could help as a pick up agent, but it seemed quite sketchy…

Does someone maybe have some tips? That would be really helpful.

Payment Help Как платить в Китае, если ты россиянин?

2 Upvotes

Занялась этим вопросов только недавно, и чем больше пытаюсь разобраться, тем больше запутываюсь(

Я еду с мамой, и хотела сама заняться вопросом финансов, дабы ей сразу предоставить всю полную информацию, сама студентка (которая за финансы не особо шарит)

Да, про наличку всё понятно – конечно, про запас я её возьму, но мне бы не хотелось расплачиваться налом на постоянной основе. Я знаю, что есть сайты WeChat и Alipay, кто-то говорит, что лучше первый, кто-то – что второй, но смысл у них, как я поняла, один: это сайт, который должен в теории покрыть базовые потребности: оплата еды и заказ такси, оплата номера в гостинице. Посредников я отрицаю, не доверяю третьим лицам собственные пожитки, карт иностранных ее имеем.

Вот только как именно эти приложения устанавливаются? Через какие российские банки (у меня есть газпром, сбер, альфа и атб) возможен перенос денег в юани? Какие подводные камни есть? Слышала и про то, что сбер (если не ошибаюсь) может как то там переносить, но комиссия имеется. Объясните, пожалуйста, как и что. Или может быть, есть какие-то официальные сайты/группы в телеграм-каналах по поводу всего этого...

Itinerary Guiyang advice.

2 Upvotes

Hi, so I am in Guiyang for 3 days. Is Huangguoshu worth it? Should I book a tour from trip or is it easy for me to navigate there myself?

Also is the Xijiang Miao village worth it? I am considering leaving for it midday and staying the night and coming back the next morning.

Are there any other attractions you would recommend?

Itinerary Crowds in Chengdu on 31 December-3 January

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I have a trip planned for Chengdu from 31 December 2026 (Thursday) to 3 January 2027 (Sunday) how are the crowds in that city during this long weekend? I’m okay with crowds, just hopefully not the extent where everyone is packed like sardines all day.

Thinking about whether I should cancel this trip given the crowds.

Thank you!
