Reviews for Lonely Planet Discover China
60 ratings1 review
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The usual LP package of general information and detailed guides on places no other guidebook mentions. However, due to the sheer size of China the number of cities contained is limited (some provinces have less than ten entries). Chinese characters are given for town names, maps contain characters too. Prices rarely match, but are highly variable and negotiable in most places anyway.
