How we research and write
ChinaMira publishes practical China travel guidance for international visitors. This page explains who writes it, how facts are checked, how AI is used, and how to correct something we got wrong.
01
Written for a decision, not for word count
Every guide starts with the decision a traveller is actually trying to make — which pass to buy, which station to use, whether a permit is needed. If a paragraph does not help that decision, it is cut.
02
Primary sources first
Visa rules, opening hours, ticket prices and transport times are checked against official sources — immigration bureaus, railway operators, scenic-area authorities and hotel or airline policies — before publication.
03
First-hand where it matters
Routes, neighbourhoods and practical friction are reviewed by our China-based travel designers and licensed local guides. Where a detail cannot be verified on the ground, we say so instead of guessing.
04
Dated, reviewed and corrected
Policy-sensitive guides carry a review date. When a rule changes we update the page, the comparison table and the FAQ together, then re-submit it for indexing. Corrections are welcome at info@chinamira.com.
How we use AI
We use AI tools for drafting structure, translation and consistency checks. Every English guide is edited by our editorial team, and every factual claim that affects money, permits or safety must trace back to an official source or a first-hand check.
AI is never used to invent prices, opening hours or policies. Where a figure can change, we give the date it was checked and link to the source so you can verify it yourself.
Corrections and contact
If something is out of date or wrong, email info@chinamira.com with the page URL and what changed. We aim to review corrections within one working day.
