I visited China 10 years ago, and the extend of cash use surprised me even then. Nobody trusts banks.
Coming from a country where I visit an ATM maybe half a dozen times a year and a bank branch even less it was quite a shock. Fortunately I can still count change pretty quickly.
The other interesting thing about Chinese currency is how light the coins are. They feel like they're made of plastic.
