Here's the number one tip for traveling to China. Order everything you need on Taobao to your hotel before arriving. Here's how to do it. First, contact tier hotel to confirm if they can receive the packages for you beforehand. A lot of hotels provide services that they can receive packages on your behalf. So check with your hotel beforehand. I recommend booking through booking.com, which is the international version of the biggest travel site in China, Xietheng. On there, you can message the hotel directly or you can call them directly through the app. You don't need an international or Chinese phone number. And you can ask them, hey, can you receive packages for me beforehand? I plan to order some before I arrive. And also confirm with them the exact address that you should be using on Taobao. Then no to Taobao and order the stuff that you want. For me, I ordered makeup removers, clothes, bags, shoes, literally anything. And it's cheaper, faster, the quality tier good, so definitely recommend. A lot of times they will put the packages in your room ahead of time before you arrive. Otherwise, you can just tell them like, hey, I'm tier. Please deliver the packages to my room. So yeah, you literally don't need to pack anything to go to China, just yes essentials. Just make sure you have your passport and let me know if you have any questions. Follow for more.
