Someone asked me if it was possible to TWOV through Shenzhen Airport (SZX). I looked it up on TIMATIC which is the official IATA website that airline check-in personnel use to decide if someone has the right bits of paper to be allowed on their flight. There are many sorts of TWOV - you can stay in Beijing or Shanghai for six days without a visa, Guangzhou and bunch of other cities for three days. There is also…

SHENZHEN has officially won the status of a National Forest City after meeting the 40 requirements for the title, according to a national seminar on the construction of China's forest cities held in the city yesterday.
A National Forest City refers to a city whose urban ecological system is mainly forests that meet the forest standards set by the State Forestry and Grassland Administration.
Who'd a thunk it?

I took the train from Futian Station to West Kowloon and back yesterday, just to see what it was like and to stock up on Marks & Spencer’s pork pies for the holiday. It costs 68rmb each way and takes about 15 minutes in the train. The stations are big so there’s quite a lot of walking involved, getting to the station and within it. Both sets of Immigration are in West Kowloon station and I was through mostly quickly, but not any faster than at Luohu/Lo Wu - probably slower because of the…

Well we did it. Just me and the boy so virtually no Chinese ability, but armed with WeChat and DiDi, we toured China for 25 days using only trains for long-distance travel. So:
Shenzhen to Shanghai by sleeper train
Shanghai to Tai'an to see Taishan
Tai'an to Beijing for all sorts of things
Beijing to Zhengzhou for Yuntaishan and Songshan
Zhengzhou to Guiyang to Anshun for Huangguoshu
Anshun to Zunyi for the Meeting Place where Zhou and Mao took over…

If you are a foreigner and staying in someone's apartment in China, you are supposed to register with the police/PSB within 24 hours of your arrival. If you are a resident who has a friend staying you need to tell them this. My son arrived a month ago and I wanted to register him.
It's a pain going to the police station and going through this procedure so many avoid it and do not register. However, now the…

In Shenzhen it's very unusual to have problems finding a taxi, but on our recent trip things were different. In Beijing you can stand waiting and watching those empty taxis zoom past because they're already answering a call. It was the same in Zhengzhou, Guiyang and a bunch of other cities.
So, if you're going to travel get DiDi on your phone, and if, like me, you can't read Chinese then get the English language version. Just search and find it. If you don't have a card linked…

We're returning to Shenzhen today from our last stop at Zunyi, Guizhou. That's the site of the party meeting in 1935 where Zhou Enlai and Mao Zedong took over the running of the PLA. It marks a major decline in Russian influence and is extremely important. It looks like this:

So today I've been up Song Shan in Henan, being my fifth great mountain. I started on this in 2013 with Hua Shan in Shaanxi, which is still my favourite of the five. Later that year dropped by Heng Shan in Hunan on the way to Zhangjiajie. A gap then to 2016 with the Heng Shan in Shanxi. Then…
ContinueI left Shenzhen in 2015 and China in 2017. I live in Tokyo from last summer and can’t really complain about anything. My job is good so is my family life. I’m very busy, and it sees to be the word here in Tokyo, but still find the time to entertain myself.
Hi, Mike, you seem to be the only one still interested in keeping this website alive... I come once a day to do some cleaning and that’s all...
Why on earth you pay so much attention to my blog. I just put on some information. Someone might have interest in it!
Ok Mike, no problem. u can contact me at your convenient time. The consumption in HK is much higher than Shenzhen. i think the dental cost will be also higher. u can have a check-up first in our hospital and then decide whether to do treatment or not after the dentist offer u price and treatment solutions.
If you need help pissing the off, just give us a bell!
Hi Mike,
Shenzhen A.K.J Stomatological Hospital has 22 years dental experience, the headquarter is located in Luohu railway station near Luohu Checkpoint (Line 1 C exit), only 3 stops far from you. you need a check-up first, the check-up is free of charge, there will be rmb 35.00 for registration and if need to have a CT, then another rmb 150.00 is required. you can check up first and the dentist will give you exact solution and prices, then u can decide to do treatment or not. If you need, u can contact me by email: shirley@lovelytooth.com for appointment or free consultant. or u can type here.
hi, Mike, want to add u to learn more from u
Shirley
Thanks .
Thank you, I am already finding that employment and visa will be the largest obstacles.
Hey Mike.I quit looking here because I feel this environment is not what I expect. I was hoping it is a more friendly community.
Hey Mike,Thank you! That's very nice of you.
Hello Mike,thank you for your information. Accutally I have no idea why I am on the popular list and basically I did not do anything to get people's attention. I just realized the things I wrote on my profile probably are very naive and nonsensical in foreigners' eyes. I will figure it out later. Have a good day!
Thanks. Sorted.
don't worry, if you want to learn Mandarin, I will not sell Mandarin course to you, only be friends.
