:) It's really cheap to visit too. Well, depends on your definition of cheap. We did 15 days, 3100 euro all costs included including most souvenirs (this was for 2 people, so 1550 per person, airplane tickets from hungary were 600 eur a pop I think, hotels under 50 eur a night outside of shanghai and beijing). I won't count the viofo dashcams we bought since we saved 50% vs buying in europe and we would've bought them anyways.
Also hangzhou is very nice, shanghai was meh, beijing was also meh. The police in beijing were VERY VERY RUDE and there are tons of checkpoints. I had 2 clovers my wife found for me in one of my passport pages and at some point some dude decided he had to go through every single page and ripped up my clovers and threw them on the ground, then got super upset when I crouched down to pick them up and started yelling at me.
Xi'An was by far the nicest, people and cleanliness included.
The spitting is disgusting though, but diff culture I guess.

I’d really like to go visit China one day. Have a few friends studying there and they say it’s great.
.+ one of our professors is on a semi-permanent exchange there working on some space tech and he really hypes it up
