Considering places like Moganshan or similar nearby places, maybe around the Taihu lake.

Anybody know if there are good camping / RV friendly spots?

Notice IDL is not valid in China and as a tourist, you will get only a C1 class license.

Rental Maxus RV90 and I will keep posting about happenings on the road. The distance is about 1300km and what I hear there might be some snow or ice on the way. That normally stops the whole highway for hours, or, in the worst case, days.
