What about footwear? I haven't a clue what to take. I have my normal boots that I wear to work, would they do with lots of thermal socks and my jeans tucked in I wonder?

Any advice appreciated!

Many thanks.

Perhaps some other Community users can advise you on what they wore in China.

I can tell you that China in January is very cold - colder than the UK, so do pack some thermals, gloves, jumpers, a warm coat and so on!

Kind regards,

Hi I am going on the 12th Jan and have planned to take thermals, hat gloves and walking boots for during the day then more dressy clothes for evening. As we are going to be living out of a suitcase I thought I would pack only one pair of evening shoes and 3 - 4 dresses which pack easily. Hope I am on the right track!
