Q: I live in Korea and will be travelling to China for 5 weeks during my winter vacation. I want to practice/learn Mandarin/putonghua while I am there. I still have a low conversational level in Chinese, but I haven't studied it for 5 or 6 years and I'm forgetting a lot. My main idea is to force myself to use it by travelling in China, but though I'd like to travel around, I know some places they will speak in a dialect far enough from putonghua that I might have trouble understanding when they speak (I'm not just talking about Cantonese, but even different accents distinct enough that it would make understanding hard). Where would I have trouble understanding Chinese if I know only putonghua/mandarin?
Q: I'm hoping to be spending roughly two weeks in China next year - specifically visiting the Huangshan Province (Yellow Mountains), flying into Shanghai, and possibly up to Beijing to fly on to Japan. I have traveled before but am concerned about the language barrier issues. How easy is to navigate successfully and get by in China with no knowledge of the language or alphabet? I know the places I want to visit are fairly well-traveresed by tourists but would love to hear from people who've done similar things.

Q: I'm travelling to Guangzhou from Hong Kong in October for the day with 5 others. We really want to ride the cable car at Baiyun Mountain and travel on the Pearl River. Are there signs in English and can we recognize the bus numbers? Also I believe there is a fast ferry from Guangzhou to Hong Kong as well as the ferry. Can someone give me so tips?
Q: I hold Indonesian pasport. I have a double entry China visa. Because I have never been to China before and I'm Indonesian so I can only get double entry visa. I'm joining a tour in HK to visit Beijing and Shanghai - 4 days in Beijing, back to HK, then flying to Shanghai from HK, so I will use one visa entry to Beijing and the second to Shanghai. I intend to visit Shenzhen as well from HK. Can i apply landing visa on the spot? Or can i apply single entry visa to Shenzhen from HK? Thanks.
Q: What is fastest method to travel from Yiwu to Ningbo? I speak no Chinese.
Q: What would be a good central location in Xi'an to book a hotel? We are looking for a clean boutique type, with local charm (with in room toilet/shower)... More importantly, it is so hard to figure out a location without knowing the city. We will be flying in and out of Xi'an.
