Insects for breakfast, boiling water from all diseases and other strange habits of the Chinese
It is a mistake to believe that the daily diet of ordinary Chinese necessarily includes insects and other creeping reptiles. For them, they are more of a delicacy. At the same time, insects intended for consumption are grown on specialized farms. In general, the country allocates 8 regional kitchens. Each village has its own original and unique dish. Another common myth is that in China everything is sold cheaply. Maybe 40 years ago, it was, but today it is not at all. Probably, only locally produced products and public transport will be able to surprise with pleasant prices. For example, to find an apartment in the center of the capital costing less than 15 thousand dollars per m2 - a great luck. All imported products, which for European inhabitants are considered the most necessary - pasta, butter, bread, cost several times more.
The Chinese are often referred to as "all in one person." There are 56 nationalities in the country, and in the northern part there is even a Russian diaspora. Different areas of The People's Republic of China have their own dialects and sometimes people from neighboring regions can not understand each other. Going on a trip to the sky, the tourist is recommended to learn at least the names of numbers, which are often used in speech and for communication in the network.
Water is a universal cure for any ailments in the Chinese. In case of any complaints, they advise to drink more water at the same time as hot, no matter what the weather is on the street. It is customary for the Chinese to carry a thermos with brewed tea and regularly add boiling water to it. Traveling around the country, it is better to always have at least some capacity: you can find water anywhere, and containers - not always.
What souvenirs are best to bring from China? Of course, the world-famous Chinese tea. You can experiment and instead of traditional varieties take, for example, from rose petals. An interesting type of tea is black deresa, which becomes purple during brewing. Pottery is even more popular.
