"Expatriates in Guangzhou may find getting used to the vibrant local culture challenging, as it often differs significantly from their own cultural backgrounds. Additionally, the language barrier between expatriates and local Chinese people, as well as the lack of understanding of cultural nuances and customs, can pose a challenge to expatriates.
