Hi,

I am planning to visit China. I have looked up things to see if it is safe to travel on your own there and have been reasured that it is however i have heard that not many people speak English and road signs are hard to understand!
therefore traveling independently in China is difficult?
I was wondering if anyone who has travelled China could tell me about there experiences and if i am better doing a tour?

Thanks
