It is not wise to tour China during this period as everywhere is crowded and some ressturant may close for the Chinese Spring Festival. I suggest you avoid this period.

Hi Suzi,

Taxis are required to wait outside of the railway station at designated areas, I suggest that you always look for taxis registered under decent companies, you can see it from its outer appearance; always ask for invoices and write down the driver's license plate numbers. If you think you are cheated on the price, make a complaint call and present your proofs.

You also can try public transportation or private transfers organized by us to avoid price cheating.
