    If Tor isn't completely blocked in china, Onion Browser might do the job. If you are on iOS jail breaking wont do much towards your goal here since you're still connecting to Chinese ISP's, your best bet is to find a free service that will allow you to VPN out but free vpns like zenmate, opera, total, hola doesn`t have servers in china - there are a few paid vpn around: https://www.bestvpnprovider.com/best-vpn-for-china/

    Hi, you can also get a VPN. You can find some free but i don't know if it works well.

    Hi, This is hardest things which people are facing in China. Because most of the useful website like google and all banned in China. I am also facing the same problem once I Visit China for business tour. But some of my friends are suggested me to use proxies to access things. Then I already choose some proxy plan which is premium because I need it for business purpose. At that time I use Microleaves Proxies, I go for the Dedicated proxy plan. And really it's work fine for me. I personally suggest you go for it. Till today i am using their services. By the way nice discussion and responses. Keep it up :clap:

    I heard on the news that from last month, China and Russia have tighten their chase against VPN and decided to ban them all (or all of those they know). :evil:

    Most of the websites are blocked in China Try Good VPN to unblock these restrictions. My Friend in China is using FastestVPN in China which is working fine. https://fastestvpn.com

    Hi all, I was reading this thread and I deemed useful to share my thoughts here, for those who already participated in this thread and for the future readers.
    When I visited China, I asked someone, she suggested me some free solutions which worked great for me. You can use i) Hotspot shield, ii) Windscribe iii) Proton vpn
    These would help you access Facebook not only in China but anywhere else where it's blocked and all these are available for free. Further to look at this list for free vpns for facebook as this may be helpful for expats: Best Free VPN for Facebook in 2018 - VPNRanks.com

    This would be entirely frugal for you guys.
    Before leaving for China, download and install all these 3, once one's limit is over for the month, start using the second one and then third.

    How's that?

    No doubt, VPN is the most easiest way to access blocked sites in China, But there are lot of VPN that are already banned by the Chinese government, But ExpressVPN is included in one of the VPN that works in China, So You can use ExpressVPN to access Facebook in China.
