Getting TO/AROUND: That is a very nice way to go into the small streets of the hutong-area! Just take care to dress properly. You can be seen from all the overpasses in the shopping districts!

'Mode': TO
Category: Train
Getting TO/AROUND: There ar equite a few trainstations in Beijing. The biggests and most important are the Railway Station in the center of Beijing and the West Trainstation, form where the trains to Xi'an for example start. The Center Station is not far from Wangfujing and Tiananmen. It is still very crowded. In front of the station are Busstops and Taxis. Please be aware of agressive Taxi-drivers, who want to take you where you wnat for a fix price. Those prices are much too high. Be patient and find the taxis, which use their meter. For example, when I wanted to go to Kai Yue Hotel, a driver offered his taxi for 50 Yuan. But i found a taxi with meter and he charged me only 16 Yuan. I was quite surprised that it is now possible to sit in a coffee-shop in front of the station and enjoy the warm sun and the busy quare. The new West Train Station is a modern building with some towers which ressemble the towers of the old Train Station. I did not see it myself though.
