Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: It can get a bit cold and very windy in Spring. It will usually be around 5degC in Spring, so do bring some warm clothings as well. It can get very very windy too, hence a wind breaker would be ideal.

Sometimes the temperature in Spring can get to 15degC with bright, warm sunshine. So do bring a not so thick jacket. Wear layers of clothes instead of one thick layer, cos you will be able to remove as it gets hot during the day, and wear more layers during the cold nights.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: The coldest months will be in January and February. The coldes temperature it will get to is usually -5degC. The usual temperature is around zero in winter. So bring some warm clothings along.

If you want to go for party, you can bring tubes or sleeveless dresses, just like what the brits wear in the cold winter! brrrrrrr...... You can blend in with them if you want.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Warm clothings are needed. Just pack the minimum warm clothing cos it is cheaper to buy warm clothing here... and more selection too.

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Toiletries can be bought here and they are not very expensive. If you have special toiletries that you need, then bring them with you.
By the way, there's no Darlie toothpaste here, only Colgate is available. Of course, there are many other brands here.
Chinese herbs and medicines are still not widely available here. There's a dodgy chinese medicinal shop in the town center.

Photo Equipment: Films and cameras are cheaper at home... But you can also find relatively cheap photo equipment on the net. For a start, you will be better off bringing yours from home.

Miscellaneous: If you like maggi mee or other instant noodles, they can be bought from Nottingham (expensive!) or London. Dun bother to bring if your luggage is overweight.
