More Information
For your trip to China, setting up Alipay or WeChat Pay with your bank card in advance will make things much easier. You'll find it super convenient for paying taxis, shopping, and eating out without needing cash. A translation app on your smartphone is also highly practical. It can help you with real-time communication in situations beyond prepared notes. Just a heads-up: services like Gmail aren't directly accessible, so you might want to look into that beforehand.
DaLi 2025 will take place in Xi'an, China, immediately following Lori X hosted by Xi'an Jiaotong University. Both venues are conveniently located within the same city, approximately one hour's drive apart, providing participants with a unique opportunity to benefit from these consecutive academic gatherings in Xi'an.
