Near China world trade center in downtown Beijng: Foot and shoulder massage
  • Tip Rating:
  • Nightlife Spot: Near China world trade center in downtown Beijng

    While in Beijing, definitely do not miss the foot and shoulder massage. This is not a sleazy massage parlor - It is a thearaputic center run by well trained professionals.
    This is the most wonderful massage that I have ever experienced. You are taken into a row of comfortable rooms. A wooden tub of hot water with something put in it is brought to you so that you can soak your feet in it. After your feet are all warmed up and cleaned, a massuese then works on your feet right from the toes to your heel to the ankle and the calves.
    You are also given a pedicure and a shoulder and upper back massage. You feel absolutelywonderful after the massage.
    The total duration is a hour and a half. You feel completely relaxed after the massage.

    Remember - The women have been professional massueses for many years. They do it every day and for many hours a day. A lot of them are students of traditional chinese holistic medicine and martial arts. Which means - do not be fooled by their size, they are incredibly strong, can easily break your neck if you try something funny with them.

    This is a not to be missed experience.
    A massage for a hour and a half for 160 Remimbi.
    Remember, they do not expect tips in China, if you give them a tip, they will come back after you and return the money.

    Houhai Lake Area: Boat trip on Lake
  • Tip Rating:

  • A busy nightlife spot in Beijing.
    Lots of open air jazz music and restaurants around.
    A boat house with boats you can rent to paddle.
    Watch out for the traffic jam on water though.

     Ah, yes, China is phenomenal for great gastronomical experiences! And I see the "temporary" art exhibition is still going -- I met one of these "students" too, in 2002... Good show!

     It looks like Beijing was a good trip. Where are you off to next??

     My similar experience: The art students wanted to 'practice English' and invited me to their school. To my surprise, I ended up ... in an art school, and (no surprise) they showed me their art. They were quite good, and I bought two for $5 or so each.
