Local Tips

Public transport is reliable, but taxis are affordable for short trips. English is not widely spoken, so basic Mandarin phrases or translation apps are very helpful.

Safety Warnings

Downtown is generally safe, but beware of pickpocketing in busy markets and buses. Avoid riverbanks late at night as lighting is poor and footing can be unsafe.

Hidden Gems
