Ready for a whirlwin

Ready for a whirlwind year in China? 🇨🇳✨ My travels took me from Beijing’s epic Badaling Great Wall, through the tranquil forests of Hangzhou, all the way to the hidden waterfronts of Shanghai—booking everything on Trip.com for max convenience! Top Spots to Visit: 1. 🚶 Badaling Great Wall (Beijing) Address: Exit 58, G6 Beijing-Lhasa Expressway, Yanqing District Open: Apr-Oct 6:30AM–4:30PM / Nov-Mar 7:30AM–4PM Tip: Go early to beat the crowds! Admission is ¥40, bring cash, and dress for a serious hike. 2. 🌊 Dishui Lake (Shanghai) Address: West Road, Huanhu, Nanhui New City, Pudong New Area Open: All day, year-round Tip: Pack snacks and find lakeside spots for sunrise or sunset—super chill, no ticket needed. 3. 🌳 Nine Creeks in the Misty Forest (Hangzhou) Address: End of 18th section of South Jiuxi, Longjing Village, Xihu District (near Jiuxi Road) Open: All day, year-round Tip: Rent a bike at West Lake or walk the scenic paths. Early morning is extra magical among the mist! Getting Around: Intercity trains booked with Trip.com are fast and comfy—especially between Beijing, Shanghai, and Hangzhou. Metro systems are easy to use—just grab a transit card! Food Musts: Try soup dumplings in Shanghai, fresh dragonwell tea near Hangzhou’s West Lake, and Beijing roast duck. Local hole-in-the-wall spots are full of delicious surprises! Key Tips: - Booking trains, flights, and hotels in one place saves time—Trip.com is a game-changer. - Weather varies: Layer up for the Great Wall, bring rain gear in Hangzhou’s mists! - Mobile payments (WeChat/Alipay) are everywhere, but keep some cash for tickets. #chinahighlights #tripcomadventures #hangzhougreen #shanghaicitylife #greatwalldreams
