Visa & Entry

Italian passport holders enter China visa-free for stays of up to 30 days. This unilateral policy covers tourism, business, family visits, and transit. It is valid through December 31, 2026. Passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of entry.

The 30-day count starts the day after entry. Leaving for Hong Kong, Macau, or a neighboring country and returning does not reset the clock. For stays longer than 30 days, apply for a standard visa at a Chinese embassy before travel.

Getting to MXP

The Malpensa Express train connects Milano Centrale and Milano Cadorna to Terminal 1 in 50–52 minutes, running every 30 minutes for €13 one-way. A second train route serves Gallarate and Varese. Terminal 2 (easyJet and low-cost) is connected to Terminal 1 by a free shuttle bus that takes about 7 minutes.

FlixBus and several coach operators serve the airport from Centrale for €5–8 but take longer, especially in traffic. Taxis are fixed-rate from Milan city (€90–100 to/from the city centre); private transfers are broadly comparable. Driving via A8 motorway takes 45–60 minutes in normal conditions.

Getting from TFU

Follow signs to the Metro Line 18 station inside the terminal. The express service reaches Chengdu South Railway Station in 35 minutes (CNY 10), where you can transfer to Lines 1, 7, or 18 local stops for the rest of the city. To reach Tianfu Square, transfer at Century City and take Line 1 north (total about CNY 30, 55-65 minutes).

Airport buses depart from the ground transport center outside arrivals. Line 1 to Chunxi Road takes 60-80 minutes (CNY 15 daytime, CNY 25 after 23:30). Taxis queue at the designated rank and use meters; budget CNY 180-260 to central Chengdu. DiDi pickup is on the east side of arrivals and runs cheaper than taxis at CNY 90-130 to city center destinations.

Chengdu (Jianyang) Climate

Chengdu sits in the Sichuan Basin with a humid subtropical climate. Summers (June-September) hit 22-29 degrees C with heavy monsoon rain. Half the annual 1000mm of rainfall lands in these four months, arriving as afternoon thunderstorms. Winters (December-February) average 3-8 degrees C and stay overcast. Frost is rare but the persistent cloud cover and dampness make it feel colder than the numbers suggest.

Chengdu is one of the cloudiest cities in China with roughly 200 overcast days per year and only 1000 hours of annual sunshine. Spring warms unevenly with cold snaps into April. Autumn (late September-November) is the most comfortable stretch with clear-ish skies and mild temperatures. Pack layers and rain gear regardless of season; an umbrella earns its place year-round here.
