Douyin: short video and discovery in China

China’s dominant short-video platform for trends, local discovery, and creator content.

Traveler Tips

  • Use Douyin for local trends, food spots, and short guides in the cities you’re visiting.
  • Search by district or landmark names for hyper-local recommendations.
  • If you prefer a less trend-driven feed, compare with Xiaohongshu for discovery posts.

Things to Watch Out For

  • Some features can vary by account status and verification requirements.
  • Recommendations can shift quickly; save posts you want to revisit.
