Toilets in China
Sorry pals but there is a real problem when it comes to
finding a decent WC in CHina. And I am talking about the whole of China, from Yunnan to Heilongjiang, from XIzhang to Zhuhai. Only African village pits can rival the sanity of a china toilet. It comes with the culture, they dont think that the toilet is worthy of their attention. Change the thousand year old habits of chinese people! An impossible task. rc |

You hit the nail on the head. It is very true. I'd use only the
facility in my hotel and avoid at all cost any other toilet in China. It is not easy. |

Change the thousand year old habits of chinese people! An impossible task. By the way, I just came back from China and for 17 days have been desperately looking for those famous Chinese toilets with no separating walls where the pig comes out chasing you when you make the big business (da pian). All I could find were western style toilets. Finally on one of my last days in China I found one of those famous toilets (try the public toilets of the hill with the temple tower overlooking Lijiang). But all the other toilets I found were western style (except one squat one in a restaurant in Shanghai). Makes me think that this China toilet stuff is grossly exagerated. -- Alfred Molon http://www.molon.de/Galleries.htm - Photos from Myanmar, Brunei, Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Nepal, Egypt, Germany, Austria, Prague, Budapest and Portugal |

I have to admit what you said is very true. BUT the government has
realised this point, now they are doing a "toilet revolution", I believe when you come to China next time you will have a better experience in 'finding a decent WC' :0) "rc" ??????
