It's the most populous country on earth and its tourists are heading to Britain in ever greater numbers - encouraged by their own version of influencers.
So what do the surging band of Chinese visitors make of holidays in Britain?
A Daily Mail investigation of content posted on Chinese platforms like RedNote and Douyin uncovered a hilarious stream of amazed reaction to a country they previously only knew from Downton Abbey, Peaky Blinders, Harry Potter and Paddington Bear.
There was astonishment at everything from our changeable weather to how workshy and crime-ridden our country can seem in comparison to their homeland - but particular shock is reserved for British food.
Star billing here goes to an influencer called Tian BingBing, who is better known in China as TiBiBi, a singer and influencer with over 250k on Douyin, a site akin to TikTok which is banned there.
