General Information
Capital	Beijing (Peking)
Language	The official language is Mandarin Chinese. Among the enormous number of local dialects, in the south, large groups speak Cantonese, Fukienese, Xiamenhua and Hakka. Mongolia, Tibet and Xinjiang, which are autonomous regions, have their own languages. Translation and interpreter services are good. English is spoken by many guides.
Religion	The principal religions and philosophies are Buddhism, Daoism and Confucianism. There are 100 million Buddhists and approximately 60 million Muslims, five million Protestants (including large numbers of Evangelicals) and four million Roman Catholics, largely independent of Vatican control.
Time	GMT + 8. Despite the vast size of the country, Beijing time is standard throughout China.
Electricity	220/240 volts AC, 50Hz. Two-pin sockets and some three-pin sockets are in use.
Climate and Weather	China has a continental and seasonal climate. Most parts are in the temperate zone but southern areas are in the tropical or subtropical zone while northern areas are in the frigid zone. Climates in different areas are complicated. Deciding when to visit China depends on which places you wish to visit, what type of weather you enjoy, and how much a bargain you want. April, May, September and October are the peak tourist months at China's most popular destinations when the weather is the most comfortable. Prices drop a bit in the shoulder season, which runs from November through March and from June through August. However, the winter months are peak season for trips to China's Hainan Island for its beautiful sunshine and to the Northeast Harbin for its world-famous ice-lantern festival. These months are also packed with New Year holidays, Chinese Spring Festival and other national or local happy fairs. Summer months are great time to explore China's Far East-Manchuria. The following is a reference table for you to prepare clothing on your trips. Spring : 10-22 centigrade (50-72 F), Western suits, jackets, sports coats, woolen jackets, long sleeve shirts and travel shoes. Summer : 22 centigrade and above (72 F and above), T-shirts, short sleeve shirts, skirts, sandals, caps, rain wear. Autumn : 10-22 centigrade (50-72 F), Western suits, jackets, sports coats, light woolen sweaters, rain wear and travel shoes. Winter : 10 centigrade or lower (50 F) , overcoat, cotton clothes, lined coats. In very cold areas a cap, gloves and cotton-padded shoes are required.
Telephone	IDD is available. Country code: 86. Outgoing international code: 00. Antiquated internal service with public telephones in hotels and shops displaying a telephone unit sign. It is often easier to make international phone calls from China than it is to make calls internally.
Mobile telephone	GSM 1800 and 900 networks provide coverage in Beijing, Guangzhou (Canton) and Shanghai; GSM 900 networks also exist in most other major urban areas in the southeastern and eastern regions including Chengdu and Chongqing. Networks are operated by China Mobile and China Unicom.
Fax	A growing number of hotels offer fax facilities but are often incoming only. Rates are generally high. Faxes can also be sent from internet cafes.
Internet	ISPs include Eastnet China Ltd. There are Internet cafes in main towns.
Press	Service to Europe takes from between two days and a week. Tourist hotels usually have their own post offices. All postal communications to China should be addressed 'People's Republic of China'.
Post	The main English-language daily is the China Daily and China Travel. There is also the weekly news magazine Beijing Review, with editions in English, French, Spanish, Japanese and German. National newspapers include The Worker's Daily and The Guangming Daily, with many provinces having their own local dailies as well.
Radio	BBC World Service and Voice of America can be received.

Money and Currency
Currency	1 Renminbi Yuan (RMBY) = 10 chiao/jiao or 100 fen. Notes are in denominations of RMBY100, 50, 10, 5, 2 and 1, and 5, 2 and 1 chiao/jiao. Coins are in denominations of RMBY1, 1.5 chiao/jiao and 5, 2 and 1 fen.
