Booking fallback
Book passport-name train tickets before you land
Intercity travel breaks when the name, passport number or station is wrong. Book the first rail leg with the passport you will carry, then confirm hotel, transfer and eSIM backups.

Hotel check-in procedures can vary by property. Check the property's passport procedure before you book, then save the reply, Chinese address and reservation details for arrival.

- •Buses are cheap but confusing for tourists — no English announcements
- •Shared bikes (Meituan Bike, Hello Bike) are everywhere — scan QR to use
Inter-City Travel
- •High-speed trains are incredible — book via Trip.com or 12306 with passport
