1. As for the bus card, you can buy it at any newsstand after you arrive in Beijing. It is very convenient to travel in Beijing. It costs 41 cents to take a bus in the city and 2 yuan for the subway.
2. Personally, I suggest that it is better for you to take the train to the South Station, because there are really fewer people, and you can get on the subway as soon as you get out of the station. There are too many people in the West Station, and the subway entrance of Beijing Station is on the ground, which is not very convenient.
3. For accommodation, I recommend staying at Wudaokou, which is very convenient to eat and live. There are many colleges and universities around Wudaokou, and many Japanese and Korean snacks are not expensive. You can find them near Wudaokou subway station, and there are many hotels.
Suppose you live in Wudaokou and arrive in Beijing in the morning:
D1: It usually takes about 11 hours to get to Wudaokou from the station (West Railway Station, South Railway Station and Beijing Railway Station are about the same time). If you can check into the hotel at noon, you can grab something to eat at Wudaokou at noon, then you can take a lunch break, and you can go to Tsinghua Peking University in the afternoon, which is very close. Bus 331,331. But you really have to take into account the crowded situation. There may be a queue at the gate of Tsinghua. You can choose to eat dinner in Tsinghua or Peking University. Both schools have many canteens, so you can experience them. At night, you can go to the Bird's Nest, which is also very close. You can take the bus. At night, there will be lights in the Water Cube, which is more beautiful.
D2: I don't know what the speed is for you to visit the park. If it's fast, there are many scenic spots from Wudaokou to the northwest, such as the Summer Palace, Yuanmingyuan, Xiangshan and Botanical Garden, which are enough for you to visit for one day. You can choose a few. If it's eleven, maybe Xiangshan can see red leaves, but it's relatively far away. You can go to Xiangshan in the morning and then to the Summer Palace in the afternoon (this is the case that you visit quickly, generally)
D3: You can choose to go to the Great Wall. The Great Wall used to take a long time. You take the subway to Xizhimen from Wudaokou. As soon as Xizhimen comes out, it is Beijing North Station. There is Yanqing Line to the Great Wall at the North Station. You can swipe your bus card, and there is no fixed seat. You can queue up in front of it long ago, so the probability of grabbing a seat is high. It is a train like Concorde. When you come back, you can choose to take the bus. There are a lot of flights, and it is convenient to stop at Deshengmen, which is close to Jishuitan. There are Xinjiekou (shopping) and Huguo Temple snacks over there (of course, this is all physically possible). You can also take the subway to Jishuitan to Shichahai or Nanluoguxiang, where there are all things from old Beijing, all kinds of snacks and shops, and there is a bar street on Shichahai. Then you can go back.
D4: You can go to the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, Chairman Mao Memorial Hall, Wangfujing and Xidan, and Beihai Park is near there. If you want to see the flag-raising, you don't have to go back the night before, but you don't have to because you have to wait in line to enter Tiananmen Square around 3: 11 in the middle of the night. It is suggested to go to Tiananmen Square first in the morning, where there are the Monument to the People's Heroes, Chairman Mao Memorial Hall, the Great Hall of the People, museums, etc., and then go to the Forbidden City after the tour, because now the Forbidden City is a one-way tour route, only Tiananmen Square can enter, and there are definitely too many people, which basically means going to see people. After the Forbidden City comes out, Beihai Park and Wangfujing are two directions, so you have to make a choice, depending on where you want to go. Of course, it's still time. Personally, I recommend going to Beihai, because Beihai is also very close to Gong Wangfu (He Shen's home), so you can go there by the way, and then you can go to Shichahai, where there is delicious food. There is a nine-door snack, which is authentic but expensive.
D5: On the last day, if you want to go to the zoo, or if there is anything else you want to go to, you can make your own arrangements. I also recommend Sanlitun. If you have money, you can splurge. If you don't have money, you can just go shopping.
Tip: 1. Congratulations if the weather in Beijing was fine in the last few days, but remember to do a good job of sun protection, and it is still necessary to prepare parasols or sun hats.
2. Going out to play, the time is tight and the task is heavy, so it is still a test of physical strength. Get ready!
3. Before you go to Beijing, you can look at the online group purchases, such as Beijing roast duck, fish head cake and so on, but you have to be optimistic about whether it can be used during the eleventh period. Besides, Beijing has gathered dishes from all over the world, so you can eat a lot of Thai food and Indian food. You can find it yourself first.
4. Personally, I highly recommend shopping in Beijing. Beijing really has all kinds of brands, and it has a large quantity and many discounts. If you have shopping needs, you can check online. There are many discount stores and the like, which are quite good choices.
have a good time ~ ~ ~
