How to Say ‘Accessible facilities’ in Simplified Chinese

无障碍设施

wú zhàng ài shè shī

[wú zhàng ài shè shī]

💬 Usage Tip: [无障碍] literally means "without barriers," and adding [设施] makes it "accessible facilities." You can also ask about specific things with the same first part, like [无障碍卫生间] or [无障碍通道].

🇨🇳 In China: This is a standard, respectful term for accessibility in China and is the wording you'll often see on signs, maps, and official listings. Using it sounds clearer and more natural than trying to describe a disability need in a more roundabout way.
