Travel Tips

  • ·Book the Forbidden City 7 days ahead — tickets sell out fast, and foreigners reserve with passport details.
  • ·Go to the Great Wall on a weekday and start early to beat the crowds.
  • ·Metro Line 1 and Line 4 cover most downtown sights; DiDi and the subway are easiest with Alipay set up.
