in Japan you do not have to register if you are just visiting somewhere

Right, but my point wasn't that the requirements are the same. I was pointing out that the parent statement "Most if not all the things we have to do, as foreigners, Japanese also have to do it." applies to China, too.

The 'registration at local police station' was just an example of one such policy.

Exactly. As a visitor you don’t have to “register at the local police station”. Just if you’re a resident.
