Safety Tips
Hangzhou has good public safety and a high degree of digitalization. International students should pay special attention to: fraud risks, especially with online shopping and part-time job information – always verify the source of information; and hot and humid summers, so take precautions against heatstroke. Practical advice: West Lake Scenic Area is crowded, so keep an eye on your belongings; mobile payments are widespread, but still be vigilant about the risk of personal information leakage.
