中国でGoogle Mapsが機能しないのはなぜですか？
Last updated:
⚠️ SYMPTOM
Google Mapsは青いドットは表示されるのに地図タイルが表示されない、または完全に読み込みに失敗します。
🔍 MOST LIKELY CAUSE
GoogleのサーバーはGreat Firewallによってブロックされています。VPNなしでは中国本土からGoogle Mapsに完全にアクセスできません。
✓ HOW TO FIX
Alipayのミニプログラム内でAmap（高德）またはBaidu Mapsを使用してください。どちらも英語インターフェースがあり、海外のSIMカードでも動作します。Apple MapsもiOS 16以降では中国本土で利用可能です。

Maps (Amap / Baidu)
Google Maps does not work in China. Use Amap (高德) or Baidu Maps for navigation; both have English interfaces inside the Alipay mini-program.
VPN for China
Astrill, LetsVPN, and NordVPN are the most reliable VPNs in China in 2026; install before arrival because the App Store blocks downloads inside China.
