Local Tips

Cash is preferred in most places, but mobile payment via WeChat Pay or Alipay is increasingly accepted. English is rarely spoken, so having a translation app is useful.

Cultural Etiquette

No tipping is required; dress modestly and avoid loud behavior in public. It's polite to greet with a slight nod or handshake. Accept items with both hands as a sign of respect.

Safety Warnings

While generally safe, beware of pickpockets in crowded markets. The city is very quiet at night; stick to well-lit areas if out late.

Hidden Gems

Explore the small Buddhist temple just outside the Railway Workers' Community and stroll along the less-visited western riverbank trails for peaceful scenery.
