中国でGoogle、YouTube、WhatsAppにアクセスできないのはなぜですか？
Last updated:
⚠️ SYMPTOM
中国のWi-Fiやモバイルネットワークでは、Googleのすべてのサービス、YouTube、WhatsAppが読み込めないか、タイムアウトになります。
🔍 MOST LIKELY CAUSE
Great Firewallにより、Google、YouTube、Meta（WhatsApp/Instagram/Facebook）、X、Telegramなどほとんどの西洋のプラットフォームが、中国本土のすべてのISPでネットワークレベルでブロックされています。
✓ HOW TO FIX
ステルスプロトコル対応の動作するVPNを使ってトンネリングするか、中国の代替サービスに切り替えてください：検索はBing、動画はBilibili、メッセージングはWeChat。

Astrill, LetsVPN, and NordVPN are the most reliable VPNs in China in 2026; install before arrival because the App Store blocks downloads inside China.
Portable WiFi
Rent a portable 4G/5G WiFi hotspot at the airport for ¥30–80/day, returnable at any major airport, useful for groups of 2–4 travelers.
Translation Apps
Pleco (offline dictionary) plus Apple Translate or Google Translate covers 95% of in-person translation needs; download Chinese offline pack before flying.
