Local Calling Cards in China

FAQ 2013/11/13 View:1285

China is a paradise when it comes to phone cards. You can either buy an international or a local phone card. They come in denominations of 10 Yuan,20 Yuan or 50 Yuan.

Most reasonably good hotels do have phones (That will accept these cards) in a corner of the foyer. If, however, you need to make a call while on the go, there should be public phone booths in any big city. These cards can be purchased from the hotel “Shops” which range from smart and chic outlets in 5 star hotels to the ever useful 7 Eleven equivalents in more modest hotels. And once again, If you are on the go, they can be purchased from most newspaper kiosks and of course from the ubiquitous China Mobile outlets.
