Abstract
In April 1983 I went on a medical tour of China, travelling around the People's Republic in three weeks, with compulsory stops at the Friendship Stores, and flying visits to commune hospitals, clinics, a Chinese Medicine hospital, and a Chinese Medicine factory. The psychiatrists on the tour were interested in visits to the Shanghai Psychiatric Hospital, the Neuropsychiatric Department of the Beijing Capital Hospital and the Hangzhau Railway Workers' Sanitarium.

Summary
In April 1983 I went on a medical tour of China, travelling around the People's Republic in three weeks, with compulsory stops at the Friendship Stores, and flying visits to commune hospitals, clinics, a Chinese Medicine hospital, and a Chinese Medicine factory. The Shanghai Psychiatric Hospital is a 'municipal distributed amongst 15 wards (one being an isolation ward for patients with infectious diseases). This latter therapy may not be a psychiatric treatment, as it occurs widely in the population in general.
