Beijing Nightlife

Peking Opera: Opera
  • Tip Rating:
  • Nightlife Spot: Don't remember...as usual...sorry

    I'm not one to visit the Opera but I really enjoyed myself here. The actors actually had me laughing and I don't speak Chinese!! You will have to check the local schedule to find out the venues. It was worth it just for the group of musicians and the cool music that they accompanied the show with. It was very inexpensive for the show that I went to. It was US$.96 cents!! Again like some of my other tips this was 1987 so I'm very sure that it will be more expensive now....A little side note that I noted in my journal was that I had bought the ticket from a scalper and he probably jacked up the price to me!! Who knows what the original price was. The show lasted about 2 hours.

    Theme: Theater
    Dress Code: I didn't notice any special dress code. Most people were just dressed up warm as it was pretty dang cold outside!!
    Directions: ahha Same as the other tips....Your guess is as good as mine!!

  • Nightlife Spot: I don't remember which one I saw

    If you're in Beijing you gotta check out the Acrobatic Troupes. They are fun to watch! They were for me anyways. I went twice in Beijing and twice in Shanghai. It was fairly inexpensive too! Just a couple of dollars in 1987. I'm sure the price has risen since then. Just ask at your hotel or tourist office for the latest schedule and prices.

     hey scott. i agree that touring with a bicycle would definitely give a lot opportunity to explore the off-beaten places. more power to pedal tourists!

     bicycles sit at the lowest level of survivability in Beijing's scale. So, if you don't mind: the pollution, the creaziest and most chaotic traffic I've ever seen (and I'm Italian), the fact that you'd easily be knocked down everywhere, yes, rent a bike!
