If you have been on this site for awhile, you know my hangups about using public toilets in Malaysia. Most of them are wet and dirty and stink. And that applies for toilets in some air-conditioned restaurants.
I was kind of expecting the same in China. The last trip I made to China didn't leave me with a good experience. Their public toilets in the city were mainly a single drain separated by walls. So you do your business in your cubicles but you share the drain. And there were no doors either.
Well, I am glad to report much has changed in the 6 years since I was last there.
My experience with toilets in restaurants around Guangzhou & Shenzhen were
relatively good. Most of them were clean, dry and did not smell. Even the public toilets on the street (you need to pay 20 cents to use them) were fine.
The public toilets in Chengdu however did smell slightly but it's nothing that any Malaysian hasn't put up with before. In fact it would be considered clean for most Malaysians. |
