Know Your Kuaishou from Your Douyin: Chinese Social Networking Sites 101 | the Beijinger: As most Western social networking sites are not accessible in China, a lot of expats turn to their reliable (*ahem*) VPNs for their social media fix. Yet China has its own host of popular social networking sites which offer alternatives to Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and Instagram, many of which are arguably better than the Western version, offering more options and integration.
My first visit to Beijing, China, was 15th of April to 15th of May 2007. Beijing is in my heart forever since then. Our 3 room apartment is in the Minan Residential Complex at Dongzhimen Nei Dajie, Dong Cheng District, Beijing. Local street is Dong Yang Wei Jie. Close to Gui Jie food street & the subway station Dongzhimen, busses, bicycling or walking to see all of central Beijings interesting sights. I´ve been to Beijing also in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2014. Who could ask for more?
