If you are traveling to China for the first time there are A LOT of things you need to know before you go! It is not the kind of destination you can just decide to visit on a whim, especially if you are unfamiliar with the important apps you need to get around and basically function. So to help you learn from my experience, I documented my flight from Colombo, all the way to Guangzhou! If you have any other travel tips for China, please put them in the comments down below!

** I USE AFFILIATE LINKS **
Affiliate links do not cost you as the consumer any more than you would normally pay, but it does offer a kickback to the person who initiated the sale. This allows me to financially continue to be able to make content for you and I only endorse products I genuinely love. Any sponsored content will be stated as so.
