China has easily become one of the top three countries I've ever visited, and I've only scratched the surface of what it has to offer. From its rich culture and warm people to the incredible food, bustling cities, and breathtaking nature, it's a place that truly captivates. Here is my detailed guide to exploring must-see destinations: Shanghai, Zhangjiajie National Park, Beijing and Hong Kong

🚨 20% OFF 🚨 This is a food tour that I've actually done with a few friends, so it's tried, tested, & true! It includes 7 spots that are all within walking distance of each other so it’s perfect for a fun day trip. Each spot in the crawl serves food that you can order in small amounts. That means you can try ALL of the spots in a day! 5 of them feature savory options, and the last 2 feature awesome desserts. The order of the stops makes the most sense for walking. Most of the stops in this food crawl offer Chinese food, because of the heavy Chinese influence in the Flushing area. Most people think of Manhattan’s Chinatown when they think of Chinatown in New York. However, most of the food in Manhattan Chinatown is Cantonese (and yes, it's great!). On the other hand, Flushing is Queens’ Chinatown. It's not necessarily forgotten, but it represents mainland China more. Manhattan’s Chinatown is more compressed, whereas Flushing has a lot of big food halls, grocery stores, and communities so it feels more local. I've also included a bonus map of 15 of my other favorite food spots in Flushing and nearby Murray Hill… in case you happen to still be hungry, or if you ever return to Flushing & just want to try something new! The bonus spots aren't in walking distance the way the ones in the food crawl are. But I wanted to include some food in this guide that wasn't just Chinese, to highlight the Korean, Indian, and Taiwanese demographics that also influence these neighborhoods.

Taking a trip to Shanghai? Shanghai is a huge city of over 24 million people so it can be daunting finding somewhere to eat as a vegan/vegetarian. I've taken that burden off your hands and selected my personal favourites and recommendations from friends. While living in Shanghai from 2017 to 2021, I transitioned to Veganism. Everyone at home thought it would be impossible for me to be vegan or vegetarian in China but real Chinese food is very veggie forward and I was there during a boom in the plant-based food industry which made my life much easier. So if you're making a trip to Shanghai, here's a list of my favourite Vegan and vegetarian friendly restaurants in the centre of the city and some further out. There are endless options in Shanghai, as one of the largest cities in the world, you'll never be bored or hungry. *DISCLAIMER* Navigating China on Google Maps is very challenging as Google is not accessible in China so I recommend downloading Baidu maps. Apple maps works but is not 100% reliable with Chinese addresses. Most of the restaurants will be easy to find as they are properly labelled and registered on the map however some of the restaurants in this list are labelled differently to the real restaurant name so please READ the descriptions.

Everything you need to know about booking your own trip to turkey with cost saving hacks Know about the Visa - If you have a UK/ US or Schengen visa, then you can get a e visa in less than 3 mins and the cost is approx 35-40$. But in case u don't have, the documentation is elaborate and it costs about 17k. I would suggest you apply for a UK or Schengen visa and then apply for Turkey visa, so u get 2 country visa for cost of 1 and you travel to Turkey and UK or any other Schengen country. Flights 🛫 from India The most economical flight option would be Air Arabia, followed closely by Indigo with direct flights from Delhi or Mumbai but considering the potential delays , I would avoid this. Etihad or Emirates would be the next best offering reliable alternatives. IST airport in Istanbul has plenty of flights and would be the optimal choice to land in Istanbul. Where to Stay ? We debated a lot, whether to stay in the old city or the Bosphorous side but eventually ended up at the old city side and regretted our decision. I would recommend to stay around the Galata tower as the surroundings are fantastic offering a blend of the typical modern city vibes with charming European aesthetics. With quaint cafes, English pubs with live music to small boutiques for shopping, the area excludes a vibe that we thoroughly enjoyed. In Cappadocia, i would recommend staying in Gerome as you would get close up views of the balloons, restaurants and nightlife. This is great for visitors without a car as everything would be at a walkable distance. Must visit around this vicinity is the Umbrella street and rainbow street. How to commute in Turkey ? We organized our airport transfers through this website. It was the most economical option, given our big group size of 8 with 2 big suitcases each. It costed about 35 euros/40$ for one way transfers(for 4 people) . Despite our flight getting delayed for over 3 hours, the transport service folks were still waiting for us. You can also use Uber app or Taksi app for local taxis. But please be mindful that you need to pay through the local currency (Turkish Lira) for this option. We were fortunate enough to find a remarkable cab driver there by name Engin (+90 5315661672)during our time in Istanbul. He went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience possible in Istanbul. He even arranged taxis for us in Cappadocia and helped us with all our transfers. We highly recommend his services to anyone visiting Istanbul.
