8 Things to Know Before You Visit Beijing

1
No matter what people say but Beijing Airport
Express is the best way to get from PEK Airport
into the city. Beijing is notorious for taxi
scammers they will long-haul you around the
chaotic ring roads. Only take taxis as a last
resort if public transportation is shut down or
if theres no other viable option.

The good thing is it is tough to get lost in the
city though. The street are all laid out in a big
grid and you can walk around venture down tiny
alleyways and streets with a vague idea of where
you are going. Even the backstreets are safe and
nobody will be staring at you. Even if you do get
lost, youll find a subway station eventually and
be able to find your way home.

One of the most important things is be prepared
when it comes to getting around since you cannot
speak Mandarin. You must keep the name of your
hotel and its address printed out in Chinese
characters. Best recommendation would be to keep
Google map screenshots of where the hotel and
also the route from the airport to your hotel.

Pollution is not as bad as you have been
informed. Also, weather is a factor when it comes
to facing too much pollution. Keep antihistamine
tablets and ventolin along with you.

Standing close in the city is pretty much normal
so, if you are in a queue, person behind you
might be so close to even press against you. You
might not be used to it so, you might feel weird
and uncomfortable. Be prepared.

Dont wait for all your food to arrive just
because you order early. Ordering first doesnt
mean its coming out first. Dishes you order will
come out when theyre ready and also, you might
not get all the food at the same time. So, when
one plate arrives, just start eating it. It could
be a while before the next one shows up.

Peak hour on the subways are crazy. So, try and
avoid catching the subway during peak hours.
There are a lot of people squeezing onto trains
to get to work and it is not the time for a
tourist to be caught up in all of it.

The relief is security is tight as they take
security very seriously in Beijing. Be prepared
that your bags will be scanned at every train
station and large tourist spots too. At the
airport you will be frisked and everything
thoroughly scanned and checked. Your luggage
might even get cracked open too, just before it
got on the plane.

Must Know About
As a traveler what are your concerns before going
to a place completely unknown? Almost everything
maybe, whether you will be able to understand
their culture, people should not misjudge your
intention and behavior and what not. Though
Beijing Tours are friendly but you must know some
things before visiting the country.
