Meet Furuisai, a Gen Z exchange student from Germany who’s fallen hard for Beijing 🇨🇳. Studying at Shanghai’s Tongji University, he’s crisscrossed the Chinese mainland and crowned Beijing as his top pick—thanks to its legendary universities, jaw-dropping Great Wall, and next-level convenience.
🎒 From slurping local noodles to zipping through payments with his phone, Furuisai says China’s tourist hubs are 'smooth and well-managed.' His family and friends? They’re living their best lives thanks to China’s 15-day visa-free policy, which lets them explore Shanghai hassle-free. 'Showing them my campus and life here feels epic,' he told CGTN. 🌏
🔍 Why it matters: Furuisai’s story highlights how China’s tech-savvy infrastructure and open-door policies are winning over young globetrotters. With Gen Z shaping travel trends, this could mean big vibes for global tourism!
