10 Reasons to Visit China in 2026 🇨🇳

If you're looking for a vibrant and unusual travel idea, China will definitely surprise you. This is a country where ancient temples and skyscrapers, teahouses and multi-level subways, pandas and fantasy mountains coexist side by side. Here are the top 10 experiences worth seeing with your own eyes 👇 ✨ 1. Contrasting Shanghai By day, the narrow streets of the old quarter, temples, and tea shops. In the evening, the skyscrapers of Pudong and the sparkle of the Bund. 🛶 2. "Chinese Venice" Zhujiajiao Canals, bridges, a boat promenade, and cozy houses—all just an hour from Shanghai. 🐼 3. Panda Encounter at Chengdu Research Base Here you can spend the whole day hanging out with baby pandas, adult pandas, and those lazy tree huggers. 🏞 4. Avatar Mountains in Zhangjiajie Before the hike, take a helicopter ride over the cliffs, then hike among the clouds. Pure magic. 🌿 5. Stay at Foggy Village A cozy hotel surrounded by nature: stone houses, steaming hot water, and silence. Perfect for escaping the big city. 🏙 6. Chongqing Labyrinth City Here, roads, subways, and houses are built on several levels. The city looks like a movie with cyberpunk elements. 🌕 7. See the "spirit city" of Hongya Cave At night, this place comes alive: illuminated, red lanterns, bustling embankments—an ancient city in a modern metropolis. 🧱 8. The Great Wall of China (Mutianyu) Quieter and more atmospheric than the more popular sections of the wall. The mountain views are endless. 🛷 9. Tobogganing You can take a cable car up the wall, stroll through the towers, and return on a sled along the rails. 100/10 emotions. 🍜 10. The most delicious national cuisine Hot pots, noodles, dim sum, tea rituals, street markets—China is impossible to understand without its food. 🎎 2026 is the perfect time to discover China. Save it so you don't lose it ✨ #China #Shanghai #Chengdu #Chongqing #Beijing #China2026 #Bazapand #AvatarMountains #zhangjiajie #Foggyvalley

How to avoid starving to death in China!?

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park

The Avatar Mountains are one of those places worth visiting China for at least once. They're quite crowded, but if you choose the right route, you won't even have to wait in lines (even for the famous elevator, in my case, the wait was exactly three minutes). Thanks to the owner of the hotel where I stayed for his help; he helped me plan the best route. And I especially love the cable cars; at one point, the rides seemed simply surreal due to the views. In a word, it's love ❤️ #travel #china #avatarmountains #zhangjiajie
