Ni hao! A little about public transportation in Beijing 北京. Our apartment is situated very central in this town. You have several ways to help you to get around the city as a tourist. The means of transportation I can put into five groups: 1. Taxi, 2. Subway, 3. Bus, 4. Rickshaw, 5 Boat and 6. Walk! Many times it´s the best to combine them to reach your destination. When I went to the Beijing Zoo and the Summer Palace I used this combination: Walk, Subway and Rickshaw for the Zoo and Boat to the Summer Palace, and finally home by Bus and Taxi. It took me and my two family guides 11 hours before reaching home. I think when you visit for a shorter period like a week or 10 days you must use the taxi a lot. It is very cheap here and you will reach your destination very quick. Though you have to be aware of the language! If not they can charge you night fare prices during the day time as you can not read their equipment. A little warning of this and maybe they don´t always take the short...
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?
