Xitang has plenty to keep you on the move, but don't limit yourself to only one place. Pick up a set of wheels and hit the open road to see what else awaits in the wider area. Here are some places to consider:

• Shanghai is around 65 miles from Xitang. Top-rated attractions like The Bund should be high on your list while you're in town.
• Located 110 miles away, Nanjing is also a hit with wanderers. Be sure to check out Temple of Confucius while you're in town. It's one of the reasons people love visiting this city.
• Get out into nature and breathe in some fresh air at Hefei Botanical Garden. You'll find it around 190 miles from Xitang.

If you don't possess a driver's license issued in China, then you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be allowed to rent a car. Please also consider that if an IDP is required, it won't be valid on its own. You'll have to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of documentation as well. Lastly, it's important that the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some added requirements for international car rentals are:

• Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or over in most countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it might still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of vehicles you can rent.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before you drive away. With rental cars, you usually can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on off-road areas with a rental vehicle.
