China eSIM FAQs
At ZenSim, we offer eSIMs that support over 200+ countries, including China. Stay connected effortlessly with our reliable and easy-to-use eSIMs.
Activating your eSIM in China is simple. Scan the QR code we provide or install the eSIM directly from the ZenSim app while connected to WiFi before you leave. Once you arrive in China, your eSIM will activate automatically, ensuring you’re connected without any extra effort.
Absolutely! Using a travel eSIM is a whole lot better than roaming in China and here's why:
- Cost Savings: Avoid high roaming charges by using local data plans tailored to your destination.
- Flexibility: Easily switch between different data packages without the need to physically swap SIM cards.
- Control: Gain better oversight of your data usage and expenses, ensuring no unexpected fees or overages.
This depends. If you're using a regional eSIM ie. Europe or Asia, then you can use it in the countries specified on our plan page. But, if you have bought an eSIM for a specific country only, then you can only use it in that country.
The good news is, if you need to purchase an eSIM for a different country, you can do that on our website (yep the one you're on right now) in just a minute or two.
Our China travel eSIMs are data-only meaning you can only use them for internet and not calling or SMS messages, unless you use an internet based messaging service such as WhatsApp.
No, as our China travel eSIMs are data-only we do not provide you with a phone number. The eSIMs are solely to remain connected to the internet so typically any calls will have to be made using an internet based messaging service such as WhatsApp.
Connectivity: If you're having connectivity issues with your China travel eSIM check out our eSIM troubleshooting guide for a troubleshooting process or of course contact us and we will get you sorted ASAP.
Installation: If you need a hand installing the eSIM we have a helpful how to install an eSIM article which should help you, or again contact us directly and we'll do our thing.

Top 3 Things to Do in China
1. Walk the Great Wall of China
The Great Wall of China is one of the most iconic landmarks in the world, stretching over 21,000 kilometres.

Whether you’re hiking the wild, untamed sections or visiting the well-preserved areas, the Great Wall is a testament to ancient engineering and a must-visit destination for travellers to China.
2. Explore the Terracotta Army, Xi’an
The Terracotta Army in Xi’an is a breathtaking archaeological discovery that dates back to 210 BCE.

Visitors can marvel at the intricate details of each figure and learn about their historical significance at the museum. It’s a unique glimpse into China’s rich history and culture.
