Survivor 15: China Survivor Maps received a tip last year that S15 may be in China. Since then we have heard other reports about the location being in China including those from TVguide.com, E!Online, and others. Jeff Probst confirmed that it would be in China during the Survivor, "in the shadow of a sacred mountain:" SurvivorSkills says that it will be filmed in Jiang Xi province within 24 miles of Nanchang. A recent trip to the area by "Vern' puts the filming area on Zhelin Lake west of Lu Mountains, and said the crew used these hotels and marinas.
