Spyder Posted April 26, 2025 Posted April 26, 2025 I’m stopping in Beijing for 5 days on the way to Thailand. Anyone got any insights for Beijing? I’ve got a visa through work, my friend is going to get the 144 hour transit visa, which I understand is now 240 hours. My plan is to do the normal tourist stuff and go to the Great Wall at Mutianyu. Any tips?

Glasseye Posted April 28, 2025 Posted April 28, 2025 Oh fcuk me. You have balls mate. I would never route through China. I'll probably catch some flak for saying that, but that's just me. No way never gonna happen.

Shanghai is easy to get around using the metro and I found a few bars. First time to Beijing though! 1 1
