Tips and Advice on China from Your Fellow Iranian Expats
Obviously, expat life in China goes well beyond shipping your belongings and taking care of red tape. Socializing with fellow Iranians is an important facet of living abroad and can be a huge stepping stone in getting to know the Chinese mentality and way of life. Iranians in China are a part of our community, calling cities such as Shanghai, Guangzhou, Beijing, and many others home. You can use InterNations to look for fellow Iranians in Beijing, for example.

It is just so easy to find other international people and global minds with InterNations. I didn´t know there were so many in Shanghai.
