Hefei Anhui, China Travel Guide
For hikes on Dashu Mountain, a small backpack and a reusable water bottle are useful. Consider renting larger items if their quality or availability is good locally.
Bring a Swimsuit if you intend to use hotel pools. Public swimming areas are less common. No specific specialty items are required for typical Hefei experiences.
A Neck pillow, Eye mask, and Earplugs are useful for long train or plane journeys. Locks for luggage, a Money belt, and RFID protection are recommended for crowded areas (Pacsafe for anti-theft bags).
Bring a reusable water bottle, Shopping bag, and perhaps utensils to reduce plastic waste. No specific unique items are required for Hefei. Consider bringing specific personal care brands you prefer or specialized electronics that might be harder to find or more pricey to buy locally (Amazon for general supplies).
Avoid unnecessary items for easier travel.
Use packing cubes for efficiency.
Keep essential documents and meds accessible.
Only pack what you truly need.
Categorize items: Separate clothing, toiletries, and electronics into individual bags or cubes. This keeps luggage organized and makes finding items easier.
Wear heaviest items: Travel in your bulkiest shoes and jacket to save space and weight in your luggage.
