Roads in the major cities of China are generally of a good standard, and major roads linking large populations are also of a good standard. Surface quality takes a real dive when it comes to more rural regions, however, and some roads can be in a state of disrepair - if they can even be classed as roads at all. Bus services are available in most towns, though long-haul journeys are not incredibly common. Taxis and rickshaws are popular methods of getting around the cities - it is best to agree a fee before setting off, however, to try and avoid 'tourist rates'. Shanghai is home to a metro system, and most larger cities have tram and trolleybus services to help people get around - it is also easy and popular to hire a bicycle to get around.

The rail service in China is the most popular method of getting around - it isn't the fastest, thanks in no small part to the huge size of the country, but it works out as affordable and is both comfortable and safe. Lines connect most regions in the country, though it can take a very long time to reach some of the further destinations - nevertheless this offers a picturesque and restful manner in which to traverse the country. Concessions are available for children.

Air travel within China is the most popular method of travelling longer distances - it's simply a matter of convenience. Many operators offer flights, though they aren't too cheap and tourists usually have to pay a premium. China Eastern/Northern/Southern, Great Wall and Yunnan are just a few of the carriers operating internal flights.

Regular ferry and short haul services operate on all major waterways through China. Connections with Hong Kong and the like are frequent and affordable, and touristic cruises up the Yangtze are offered alongside more pragmatic journeys.
