General Travel Questions

As you can hopefully see from this site, my goal is to provide as much free information as I can about traveling to Xinjiang, China. For the past 10 years I have personally responded to over ten thousand questions regarding travel throughout Xinjiang.

The FarWestChina Xinjiang Travel Guide

It was for this reason that I decided to publish my Xinjiang travel guide book on Amazon that answers 95% of the most frequently asked questions I receive. I even offer a free download of the trip planning chapter for you to try it out before your purchase.

I still want to answer your question – I promise! – but there’s a good chance that you’ll get an email back from me saying that the question has already been answered in the book.

If you’ve found this website helpful in your planning, please consider supporting my work by purchasing the FarWestChina Xinjiang travel guide. I greatly appreciate it!

If, for some reason, you have a specific question that you can’t find answered in the travel guide, use the contact form below to submit it to me. I make no guarantees, but I’ll get back with you as soon as I can.

      I welcome all inquiries and requests from members of the media, although I warn you that I will not go on record about any politically sensitive topics.

        Guest Posting Requests

        As a general rule, I don’t accept unsolicited guest post articles.

        If, however, you’ve recently traveled to Xinjiang and feel like you have information or an experience that would help future travelers, I’m very interested. It’s best to email me with an idea before writing and I’ll give you my personal feedback to let you know what may need to be changed before you spend time writing.

        Photos would need to accompany any articles. I will offer one link to your website in return for a well-written Xinjiang travel article.
