Thats a very helpful and great video, thank you so much, Ill be in Shanghai on Wedesday if you would like to meet up let me know
currently it's holiday in China and I am traveling outside of Shanghai
Can’t you get eSIM in China? Is everything block or do you need a VPN?
you can get foreign e-sim the things are not blocked, locked Chinese e-sim blocks Google and meta services etc
I have alipay account and the wallet seems to be activated successfully. Are there any exchange counters at the airport to help me top up alipay balance by cash?
The wechat Services rail and flight being uto translated doesn't seem to work anymore. It's not autotranslating for me. If there is a way to get it to auto translate I'd love to know that
I was there 15 year ago...
Great video. Will be traveling to China early next year. I have quite a lot Yuan in paper form leftover from my last visit from 10 years ago. Since all transactions are now done using phone apps like AliPay, what can I do with them? Or where can I go to exchange my paper Yuan?
How can you see a doctor online?
Thanks for showing the Real Xinjiang to people !
I love German people when they speak English with a German accent.
Thanks for the video and i would like to rent a el7 if I come to Germany for family trip. Just for sharing ,as far as I know the 150kwh battery had been online in 062024 in China power stations. (ofcoz you have to pay for it around 15 usd per day). In china, nomi would be backup by the nomi gpt which the database is in china. So it seems nomi function had been restricted in Germany as nomi may work like normal chatgpt in china. Though,nomi gpt was not the chatgpt in us. Nomi in china is already enough for normal conversation like travel planning(suggesting 2-3 days travel spots) and designate mode (temp,seat angle,music etc) when specific person get on the ride….
Thank you
You're welcome
❤👍🙏
❤👍🙏
all that lying propaganda from the BBC, DW, FOX NEWS 😄 I have visited that region, all Muslims are free to practice their religion, I saw them pray freely, they even invited me to visit the mosques
Where's the 2nd video?
for metro guide? there's no second video, the app guide video hast 2 parts
Very useful video. Thank you! Could you please clarify me two things? The alipay code you use when you checkout the metro is the same of the entrance or you generate a new one? And If you catch a bus you need to scan the code twice ( when you enter and when you get off the bus) ?
hello, for bus once to get in for metro same code in and out (twice)
Hi when you chose to withraw using your foreign bank account, does the machine auto convert it to rmb?
yes of course
hi there thank you for your videos! may i ask how to join the group chats seen in your wechat? for example the job offers, or apartment groups? i cant seem to use the search function properly
You can only join them if someone in there I invited you, no other way
If foreign landed in Chinese airports. They have desks could help you and foreign could buy SIM card over there.
yes but 2x+ more expensive
This is so helpful! You guys are awesome, thanks!
Our pleasure!
I just finished watching your other video "How to get your sim card in China". You are by far the best Chinese guide I've found on youtube, very clear and helpful info, thank you Oli!
Glad it was helpful!
May I know if we can bring 24" &28" luggage up china high-speed train second class seats ? Where can we store them?
yes you can they've luggage racks
"Small airport"? This looks to me like a rather big, busy "airport".... maybe you haven't been to a small airport before, which can be very pleasant. Nice video.
12306 now (Aug 2024) still need a china phone number to buy a train ticket?
thank you!
You're welcome!
Very helpful thank you
You're welcome!
are there Tandem Bikes, and/or Child Seat available fro rent?
Unfortunately not
Is there any elevator in the station?
Yes there is
may i ask if I need a mainland phone number to use DiDi to call for a cab? as for 12306 railway too, do I need to purchase a sim card with mainland phone number.
for Didi don't need local number for 12306 yes, but you can use trip.com for train tickets without local number. just check out my train and app video in my China guide Playlist in my Channel
Baidu maps, that'll tell you which subway or bus to take to get where you're going. That's a good app to use.
Which service is it? Is it available in Shanghai to anyone?
it's an extra robo taxi app, it's not available yet in downtown Shanghai only on Shanghai automobile city area of jiading district.
Hi, we bought tickets on Wechat app but my husband forgot to add his middle name, which appears on his passport. Do you think it could be a problem when scanning the passport ? We do Beijing/Shanghai Thank you very much for this video
hello, they'll usually also let you board even scanning machine showed an error. I would not worry too much about it
Can i use my apple map for navigation in china while in using my international roaming?
Yes that should work fine, just google maps unfortunately isn't working accurately
Hey, Ich wollte fragen, ob du weißt, ob man bei Alipay die Taxis auch mit seinem Guthaben bezahlen kann? Oder wird das automatisch von der verbundenen Karte abgezogen?
Man kann sie auch mit dem Guthaben bezahlen
Thank you for showing all the options. Very useful.
You're welcome, have fun in Shanghai and China!
Baidu map is really useful. Besides, I found that there exist an English veison of Baidu map in an app called Immersive Translate. Amazing.😂
Thanks for the info!
How to open English version of baidu map in immersive translation??
how did you get pinyin in wechat?
As I said in the video I show it for everyone at the end of the video of part2
I know you mentioned there isn't any english apps that you know of but what about just a foreigner bringing their iphone using vpn and using google maps? How well does that work?
Google maps data is outdated and therefore frustrating to use, iPhone imap or however is called works without vpn just fine in China.
@@OlisBigPicture thanks for the info, have also read similar results by other visiting foreigners. Surprised google maps is not accurate for china
This is such a helpful guide for anyone traveling to China! Getting a local phone number and data plan seems straightforward with your step-by-step instructions. The tips about using translation apps and looking for student promotions are especially valuable. Thanks for sharing this essential information!
Hello! Cool videos guys, thnx for advices. I will come to your place at September. We should definitely hang out. What you think about Nihao Mobile? Heard about this company a lot.
Telecom service in China is very affordable. If you have a Chinese number and put your Chinese number/data on roaming while traveling abroad, many times the charging would still be much lower than getting a local SIM.
Finally a helpfull Video!
Glad it helped!
❤SUBCRIBE❤for more content in the future, helping us to grow. Thank you!❤
Then I must recommend a translation plug-in called Immersive Translate for you. In my opinion, it plays an important role in translating Chinese.
What's the cost and how do you pay
It's right said in the video, u can pay in cash, with card or alipay/wechat pay
thank you very much for such a great and useful video
Glad it was helpful! 😊
This is exactly the content I was looking for to ease the anxiety of a first trip to China. Thank you! Question about luggage: are there some dedicated spots inside the train where you can leave your luggage (like the big one that is hard to put above the seats)?
Hey, yes at the ends of each wagon, where the doors are, you can find often luggage storage racks.
My family doctor write me some tests how can i do tests in public hospital my insurance says you have to give all data for money claim can you give advice to me
If you're in Shanghai you can go to smartshanghai dot com and find English speaking hospitals, just give then a call and ask
@@OlisBigPicture i am in shenyang
Thank you this is super helpful!
You're so welcome!
Hello, is the didi app usable in other parts of xinjiang such as Turpan?
Yes it is usable, just not sooo many drivers available
