[quote=GAZ07                   ,9902]This is not even close to all the problems i had whilst travelling in China, but thats part of backpacking, you take the good with the bad, the hard with the easy...Pickpocketed @ Nanjing - I followed someone to a cheap hotel from the train station with my bags, then i felt a pulling on my pocket, i looked round to see someone trying to take my wallet, he had undone my pocket zip and got the wallet half way out. Chinese people outside a restaurant watched and laughed.Robbed @ Shanghai - i was sat on the bund late at night eating food when somebody sat next to me. At the time i didn't think anything of it, then later i realised he'd stolen my Lonely Planet China (270bht) after he'd gone.Scammed @ Shanghai - I met 2 "students" who invited me for a cup of tea, wanting to make chinese friends i followed, only to find it cost about 500 yuan for 5 tiny cups of tea =( Lesson learned - check the prices first!Punched @ Xi'an - Some guy tried to pickpocket me, again, when i looked round he still had his hand in my pockey. I took his hand out pretty forcefully and so the little guy decided he wanted to fight me. He ended up on the floor, and i walked away.Verbally abused @ Great wall - After asking some guy in a minivan if he goes to Simatai, he said sure, then half way he stopped and told me to get a taxi. After i refused to pay, this little guy felt the need to speak chinese at me furiously then grabbed me for a fight. The problem was sloved without a fight.I'm not trying to put anybody off going to China, they were all small petty incidents, usually because i was staying in the cheapest areas. Just beware at all times =)[/quote]
