About Cathaybound
Cathaybound is built for people planning their first trip to China. Every guide is written against real data — published rail timetables, current fare tables, and the version of the rules that is actually enforced at the border. When something changes, we change the page.

What we cover
Operational how-to layer (visa-free transit, payment apps, SIM/eSIM, power plugs, airport transfers), first-time-visitor framing, point-to-point rail and air routes, city and landscape destination guides, itinerary and season planning.
Every figure on this site carries a verified date, and every guide says so. Rules, prices and timetables move; when we learn something has changed, the page gets updated rather than qualified into meaninglessness. If you spot something wrong, tell us.
