Hello everyone! My boyfriend, a couple of friends, and I are visiting China for the first time this September. We’ll be staying for 9 days, flying into Shanghai and departing from Beijing.

We plan to focus on these two cities and maybe a few nearby spots. We’re looking for local suggestions that match our interests:

Culture & Food: We’re looking for authentic experiences, even though we’re Italian, we’re super adventurous eaters and down to try any bizarre food they throw at us!

Music: We love live music, especially alternative, post-rock, and punk, but we're also into techno. Any cool venue or club recommendations?

Pop Culture: We're big fans of video games and comics/manga.

Thanks in advance for any tips!
