Looking for a market...
by Johny100
Hi!
Is the market Tiancheng still there? I was there in 2005 and I think it's located under an ice skating rink.
Thanks

Ellyse- You know everything! Could you tell me what it says in English?
Re: Looking for a market...

As I've answered previously on other forums, I don't profess to know everything. Just the knowledge that online searches exist and that I'm not too lazy to use those.
Use Google Translate (http://translate.google.com) to translate the website if you don't read Chinese.

Ellyse, thanks, once again. I had never seen the google translation before. What a great tip.

Travel Tips for Beijing
Changing Money in Beijing
by machomikemd
Changing Money in Beijing is simple but a tip, changing foreign currency in hotels are better than changing in moenyshops downtown why? exchange rate of $1 - 6.75 RMB in hotels but they charge NO commission fees! while in moneyshops in beijing area the exchange rate is $1 - 6.86 RMB (which is higher) but they charge a 30 RMB commision per TRANSACTION so it is better to change foreign currency in hotels since they have no commision charge!
also good to exchange in Money exchange shops in various factories that you visit after tours, they may be tourist traps but you can exchange foreign currence to RMB there WITHOUT Commision charges! so when in a factory (whether jade or silk or ceramic or whatever) change your money into RMB and have no commision charge! Besides US Dollar, they also accept euros, japanese yen, thai baht, HK dollar, Macau pataca, Philippine Peso, Singapore Dollar, Malaysian Ringgit and Others!
Chinese Tooth Paste
by machomikemd
very cheap at 10 RMB a 150 ml pack and is available at chinese convenience stores outside (just point it since they hardly understand english), useful to buy if you forgot to pack a toothpaste in your luggage or if your airline lost you luggage on your first night (like what happened to us hehehe) that is why we are forced to buy this and other stuff. (our bags arrived just after midnight at the hotel).
In the back of Forbidden City
by solopes
Mountains have a special importance in Chinese religion. That's why, in the flat Forbidden city, a pile of rocks simulate a mountain near the north exit.
Looking further, we may see a real mount out of the city, with dense trees and a pagoda on the top. Was it connected with the palace? We had no time to explore it.
Toys galore!
by Willettsworld about Toys Goldenage
This excellent model shop is located just down the road, east of the Drum and Bell Towers. If you're into model cars and such like then this place is for you. The street is also home to several musical instrument shops.
Public Bus
by Nprawira
Finding the right bus to ride is generally easy that is if you can read Chinese characters. Bus stations are mostly equipped with sign boards telling which bus numbers stop there and their destinations but sadly they are written in characters. Fare starts with Y1 for the first 10km and then another Y1 for every additional 10km. Never try to pay the driver the fare but look for the conductor with the yellow shirt and often the loudest.
Questions and Answers
Q: Tour "We are group of 3 kiwi students with 2.5 full days to explore in Beijing on a budget. Want to see the 'must do's' great..."
A: "Two and a half days would be enough for what you mentioned. You won't need a tour for visiting these places except Great Wall. If you choose Badaling section, you can do..."
