Recently came back from there for a week. Thought that place was pretty chill, surprisingly so when compared to the rest of China.

I am just wondering if anyone tried DNing there and what you thought about the place?

Note: no political reasons whatsoever please, I hate politics with a passion. I want pure life/work related response please. Thank you.

Different city, but least chill environment I've ever experienced. Impossible to navigate, impossible to pay for things (no cash or credit card accepted in many places) impossible to communicate, impossible to get a good internet connection. Everywhere smelt of smoke, even mane places indoors. No thanks. I doubt Hangzhou is magically differrent.

Alipay is super easy to get and sign up with a foreign credit card

If cash nor credit is acceptable, how does one obtain things? Trading items?
