What's The Best Way To Enjoy Chinese City Tours On Foot?

Walking through Chinese cities on your own feet is an amazing experience to feel the local culture, history, and lively street life. When you begin to explore a city in China by walking, it can be useful to have a simple plan. Decide which main places, areas, and famous spots you want to see. Here is a guide to help you enjoy your city tours in Chinese cities by walking.

a)     Immerse yourself in local neighborhoods

Chinese cities are a mix of the old and new. To really understand this, you should walk through the local areas of Beijing Hutong Tour. In Beijing, for example, you can see traditional Chinese life in the hutongs, which are little narrow places. In Shanghai, there's a place called the French Concession where you can find pretty streets, old buildings, and modern cafes.

b)    Visit local markets

A great method to see a city is by its markets. Be it for eating food, or used items, or when it's nighttime, these busy places are full of energy. Try some food from local street vendors, look at special souvenirs, and talk with the sellers. In Chengdu, the Jinli Ancient Street is a good place to begin. In Guangzhou, the Qingping Market provides many traditional Chinese herbs and spices.

c)     Parks and gardens

Chinese cities, like many others, often have pretty parks and gardens, which are good for people to relax. In Shanghai, the Shanghai City Tour is very beautiful and has many places where you can sit down and look at the view. In Suzhou, the classical gardens are a peaceful retreat from the bustling city streets.

d)    Engage with locals

Don't be afraid to talk with people who live there. Even if you can't speak the same language, just a happy smile and some simple words can help a lot. Wandering around can be hard because of tiredness, so remember to stop and rest. Look for a local place where you can sit, like a café or tea house, and just watch everything passing by.

e)     Learn a few key phrases

To have some simple phrases in Mandarin can improve your enjoyment. Saying hello, thank you, and how to find your way are helpful and make talking with others more friendly. Write down interesting things you see, write about the yummy food you eat, and mention any special places you go to. This personal record of the Shanghai French Concession Tour can be a treasure trove of memories.
