Jour de l'An

📣 Conseils aux voyageurs

China offers a blend of rich history and modern life, from futuristic cities like Shanghai and Shenzhen to natural sites such as Guilin's karst scenery and Huangshan's peaks.

• Major national holidays (e.g., Chinese New Year, National Day) cause large-scale internal migrations.
• During peak holidays, transportation (air, rail, road) can be extremely crowded, requiring advance booking.
• Travel plans must be extensive during major holiday periods.
• Chinese New Year represents the largest annual migration of people globally.
• Spoons are used for soups and porridge; chopsticks are best for bite-sized food items.
• Expect Chinese customs rather than Western dining traditions.
• When dining, dishes are typically shared family style using passing platters. Wait for the most senior person at the table to begin eating. Avoid placing chopsticks vertically in a bowl or passing food from one person's chopsticks to another's. Do not return uneaten food to a shared dish.
