China Travel NIGHTMARES: Which City is Your #1 'HELL NO'?

[Wesley Parisian-Kerluke IV]

Chongqing, it's hot pot all over the city. It's like they don't have any other way to cook food.

[Leland Erdman]

There are plenty...

[Rosemarie Sawayn PhD]

Xi'an! Xi'an! Such a huge disappointment! I'm utterly disappointed.

[Dexter Cummerata]

I was just about to go! Tell me, tell me what happened! (Shakes you).

[Sadie Ortiz-Waelchi]

Changchun, I'd say.

[Ken Fahey]

Anything I should be aware of? I'm planning to go in June.

[Stacey Kulas]

Chengdu, a place where the only thing I could eat was KFC.

[Pamela Miller]

Really? I've always been so keen to visit. I always imagined Chengdu had tons of amazing street food.

[Mattie Lockman]

I've been ripped off in Xi'an so many times, I never want to go back.

[Ken Fahey]

I wasn't even there as a tourist. Every single time I visit, I get scammed. Now, I still haven't gotten refunds for two hotels, and I couldn't even check into either of them.

[Israel Koss]

Xi'an, for instance. Remember that incident on the subway where a man aggressively pulled at a female passenger's skirt until she was almost in her underwear? The woman, apparently a teacher, was reportedly forced to resign afterwards. The man? He just got a suspension, no other real punishment. And under the video footage, so many comments were blaming her, asking why she wore such a short skirt. Imagining myself in her position is just utterly despairing.
