🇨🇳 How to recognise China in Street View
China is in East Asia. Here's how to tell you've landed in China when Far Fetched drops you there in Street View.

Clues to look for
Simplified Chinese characters, very modern cities, wide roads and electric scooters.
Driving side
Cars in China drive on the right. So do Taiwan and South Korea, which are also in East Asia. Most of the world drives on the right, so this alone won't narrow it down much: check the signs next.
Countries it's easy to confuse with China
If you guess a neighbour of China you still score 2 points, and any other country in East Asia scores 1 point.
