China offers a compelling mix of modern infrastructure, rich cultural heritage, and varied natural landscapes, making it an appealing destination for some Danish travelers. With 3.2 million Danes traveling abroad annually, a portion may find China an interesting option despite fluctuating tourism trends.
China's safety for tourists from Denmark can be assessed through various rankings and statistics. While Denmark is ranked 6th in safety among European countries for walking alone at night, there is no comparable data for China. According to the Global Peace Index, Denmark ranks 8th, whereas China is ranked 87th out of 160 countries, indicating that it is generally less safe. In terms of murder rates, Denmark has a rate of 0.8 per 100,000 people, while China has a lower rate of 0.5. However, comprehensive data on female murders in China is not available. The Global Organized Crime Index shows that Denmark has better scores across various crime categories compared to China. For instance, Denmark's mafia group index is 5.0, while China's is 7.0. Similarly, Denmark scores better in crime networks (4.0 vs. 7.5) and state crime (2.0 vs. 7.0). Overall, while China has a relatively low murder rate, the higher organized crime indices suggest that tourists should exercise caution. It is advisable for Danish tourists to stay informed about local conditions and follow safety guidelines while traveling in China.
