I. Central District
Wangfujing-Tiananmen-Zhongshan Park-Xidan
This line is definitely indispensable for people who come to Beijing for the first time.
Wangfujing 1
Wangfujing Pedestrian Street is just a shopping street. I may be a little disappointed to come, but I will regret not coming. After all, it is a world-famous commercial street. It's really the place I know best in Beijing. Maybe I talk too much. I look at this street after work every day. )
Shopping advice:
Wangfujing is definitely not a good place for ordinary tourists to shop. Those Beijing specialties and shops at the street corner are really fooling tourists, and the quality is really bad. If you want to buy Beijing specialties, you'd better choose a bigger store or go to the basement of Sun Dongan market. Don't buy clothes here either. The biggest difference between clothes in shopping malls is the price. Go to Xintiandi in the East, don't be afraid. Don't buy cheap shops, the quality and style are not that good.
Personally, I think Wangfujing is worth seeing as follows:
The Malls at Oriental Plaza
Located at the gate of Wangfujing, it is probably the most expensive and luxurious shopping mall. I have worked in this building for a year, but I just bought a few small things under 200 yuan. But it's good to feel the atmosphere of this shopping mall, and you can visit beautiful women for free, hehe.
Recommendation: There is a puff cake shop in the food street on the first floor underground, and one in 6 yuan. Very delicious. It is also sold in Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong, and Beijing has only seen it here.
Xiaochiyi steet
Snacks are not authentic, and that's where you regret coming or not coming. Just have fun. There may be opera acrobatics in the evening and a fake antique street where you can buy some handicrafts. There is also Donghuamen snack street along the road, which is lively at night.
Xin Dongan market
Dong 'an Market has been a shopping mall in Beijing for a long time. The new Dongan market was built the year after, and now it is open.
Visitors to Beijing are recommended to visit the basement of Sun Dong 'an Market. There is an old Beijing street, some imitations of old Beijing, and some old shops, teahouses and jewelry stores.
There are sugar snowballs at the entrance of the new Dong 'an market, a specialty of old Beijing, which is highly recommended!
Wangfujing church
Keep going and don't give up. Donghuamen snack street, the church will be more beautiful at night. If it is a meal here, it is recommended to go to the "Wonton Queen" on the street of Donghuamen Snacks.
If you can go straight along this street, you can go to Beijing People's Art Theatre. I'm crazy about the drama here, the most real drama. Friends who like it must not be stingy with tickets, if they can still buy tickets.
Tiananmen
Changpuhe park
Walking along Wangfujing, you can reach Tiananmen Square and pass by Changpuhe Park. Behind the city wall, many people who have stayed in Beijing for a long time have not found it, and it is hidden in the city. There is such a quiet and elegant free park behind the busy street, which is worth visiting.
Tiananmen
Many tourists with children should not go to the flag-raising ceremony. It's still cold in the morning and evening, and they have to get up early. If you really want to see it, watch the flag lowering ceremony. I don't know the time, just ask the armed police in Tiananmen Square. It's in the newspaper, too.
Along Tiananmen Square, you can walk to the entrance of the Forbidden City. Tickets for the Forbidden City have risen to every 60 yuan. It's just a palace. It's good to have a panoramic view, and it's not much fun to see every room. It doesn't cost 60 yuan to see the panorama. It's best to go to the top of Jingshan Mountain at night and get tickets to 5 yuan.
Instead of going to the Forbidden City, you can visit the towers, which is a bit interesting. Those who want to go to Mao Zedong Memorial Hall must say hello to the opening hours, which are not always open. I went in to see it once when I was a child.
Zhongshan park
On the edge of Tiananmen Square, there may be a tulip exhibition on May Day, and the photos taken are very nice. The person I brought last year thought I was on the PS.
Xidan
According to Tiananmen Square Station 2, the map passes through Xidan Book Building, and those looking for books can also take a look by the way.
Xidan is the most prosperous business district in Beijing, and young people go there more. If young people go shopping, they can go to Mingzhu, Warwick (7th floor of Xidan Shopping Mall) and Cenozoic (behind Xidan Shopping Mall). There are many people in Mingzhu and Warwick holidays, so they dare to bid. In fact, things won't be very expensive, so don't worry, paddle boldly. The new generation is not as many as the first two products, but there are few people, so you can browse slowly and find what you like carefully, and the price will not be very outrageous.
Young people can also go to 77th Street, underground of Xidan Cultural Square, which is a fashionable block with many specialty stores and high prices.
Shopping malls include Xidan Shopping Mall, Zhong You Department Store and Juntai Department Store, which are not recommended. Zhong You can still be visited, but the discount is not as much as that of southern cities.
If you want to eat in Xidan, there are small storefronts on the top floors of Xidan Shopping Mall and Zhong You Department Store. There are hot pot with breast milk in the top floor and Pearl House of the new generation, which is delicious and not expensive. Highly recommended! !
Second, night activities
1, flying kites in the square
In the evening, the most popular ways to appreciate the charm of Beijing are to go to Tiananmen Square to watch lights, flower shows, fountains (only on major festivals) and fly kites in the square.
2. Go to Houhai at night
You'd better go to Houhai Bar Street. There is a water area in Houhai, with bars and cafes on both sides. Not as decadent as Sanlitun, with a unique style. It doesn't look like Beijing.
You can rent a double car to visit the hutong, either in the daytime or at night, but there are more cars at night, so pay attention to safety. You can go boating, and there are paper lanterns on the water at night, which can be picked up and put on your own boat. Once I went boating, I met a group and the two boats began to sing.
The design of many storefronts has certain characteristics, some are noisy and some are quiet, so it may be inconvenient to take children in. You can continue to go inside, and there are quieter shops. There is a swing in front of a small shop.
There are also many small specialty shops in Houhai. I can't remember the name, but I can really find something good. From the Lotus Market, there are several good restaurants, including Tea Horse Road and Yunnan Cuisine. When it is cool in summer, you can choose to eat outdoors and watch the night view of Houhai while eating, which is also a kind of enjoyment.
Step 3 watch half-price movies
If you want to go out on Tuesday night, I suggest going to the movies, because all cinemas in Beijing have half-price tickets on Tuesday.
Step 4 enjoy carving time
If you live in Haidian District, you can carve time coffee at night. There are three in Beijing, all in Haidian. I only remember one at Wudaokou and one near Minzu University. Very good coffee shop, frequented by many foreigners, with low consumption level, and you can't buy many magazines. Not quiet or noisy. This is a place for leisure. I really like watching movies on my laptop near the window on the second floor.
Third, feel the ancient rhyme of Beijing.
Tiantan Park 1
The reason why I recommend going to Tiantan Park is not because of its architecture, but because it reflects a kind of civic culture in Beijing.
If you are an office worker in Beijing, many old people will grab the bus with you in the morning, because you will go for a walk in the Temple of Heaven. Here you can see many old people enjoying themselves, dancing, playing cards, knitting, and doing nothing in the sun ... Some of them are playing with old things in Beijing, and many foreigners come to the Temple of Heaven. It is common for outsiders to learn the old tricks of Beijing. Of course, the Hall of Prayer for the New Year and the Echo Wall in the Temple of Heaven are also worth seeing.
The ticket 10 yuan is a through ticket to 30 yuan. 4 1, wait for the bus to arrive.
2. Dashilan
Located at the front door. The whole street is an old shop in Beijing, and the headquarters of Quanjude Roast Duck is not far from here. There are many old Beijing in the center of Beijing, but this street is also a slum in Beijing, just opposite Wangfujing, not far from here. Two different scenes. You can see another Beijing here.
3. Liulichang
Is this place famous enough? Those who don't know antiques also come to join in the fun, near Hufang Bridge in Xuanwu District.
4. Imperial College
Near the Lama Temple, get off at the Lama Temple subway station. Passing the Lama Temple, the Lama Temple is full of incense, and there are shops selling incense all the way. Go straight and turn to Guozijian Street.
Imperial academy is a small scenic spot with few architectural features, but it makes people's hearts clean. The whole street under the green forest tree is quiet. There are houses and alleys with blue bricks and red tiles everywhere, and there are incense shops and antique shops on the street.
Fourth, Haidian first line
1, Beijing botanical garden
Located in the northwest of Beijing, not far from Xiangshan. Botanical gardens are worth visiting in spring and autumn. Spring is blooming and autumn is pleasant. It is basically flat, and it is not difficult to walk. There are also three artificial lakes, and Beijing is short of water. I hope I can understand this, hehe.
Tickets are generally in 5 yuan, and there is a flower show 10 yuan. 33 1 Wait for the bus to arrive at the station.
2. Xueyuan Road
Important universities in Beijing are basically concentrated here. Under Xizhimen subway, you pass Beijing Film Academy, China Government University graduate department, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Beijing Union University, peking university health science center, University of Science and Technology Beijing, China Geo University, and if you go straight, there are China University of Mining and beijing language and culture university, but this road is no longer called Xueyuan Road.
If you want to go to the most famous university in China, you should turn left at China Geo University and turn to Chengfu Road, then gradually reach Tsinghua and Peking University.
Bi Jing is still going to Peking University, which looks like a palace garden, but I don't know if tourists are allowed to visit Peking University on holidays now.
3. Yuanmingyuan
It's close to Peking University. Although I have never liked this kind of park, it is still worth visiting. It's not good to go too many times like me.
If it's a family of three, I suggest you go and have a look. You can see Dashuifa, maze, small zoo and some facilities similar to outdoor sports. There is enough water for boating in the park. If you buy a pass, you can also take a boat trip for free. The pass is more than 40 yuan. I haven't been there for two years, I don't remember. Tickets 10 yuan.
4. Summer Palace
It is the most beautiful park in Beijing, and it is also the park with the highest satisfaction of Beijing residents, but I don't like it very much. It's just that the scenery is beautiful and it lacks some fun. Tickets used to be 30 yuan.
5. Zoo
Take the child's recommendation to see it, and the child will definitely like it.
Take the subway and get off at Xizhimen, then change to a bus. Not far.
There are many clothing wholesale markets near the zoo, and those interested in doing this business can also go and have a look.
Remarks: It does not belong to Haidian District, but it is very close to Haidian. I posted it here by the way.
Verb (abbreviation for verb) recommends shopping places.
Xidan 1
I've said it before, so I won't mention it again.
2. Wudaokou Clothing Wholesale Market
The west gate of University of Science and Technology Beijing, Xueyuan Road, Haidian District, may be demolished soon due to land reclamation, but there are indeed many good booths. There are many Korean costumes, and there are many Korean students and shops at Wudaokou, Xueyuan Road. Wudaokou covers a relatively large area, reaching the east gate of Tsinghua.
There are many styles of clothes here, which are suitable for young people and cheaper. It's worth a visit.
Get off at Xizhimen subway station and take 375, 375 branch lines and 749 ... bus. Station Name: East Exit of Chengfu Road. I remember it clearly because I was at the gate of our school, haha.
3. Xinjiekou
Get off at Xinjiekou of the subway. It used to be a famous business district, and it is now, but it has declined a little.
There are many specialty stores here, some of which are quite cheap, and ordinary stores can charge more, so we must carry out the price plan to the end. There are also several good snack bars in this area, such as the one on the subway, which is also a state-run Beijing snack. Then there is the Xinchuan noodle restaurant, which tastes good. There is also a Donglaishun, Beijing authentic hot pot and big copper pot near here, which is very different from the southern hot pot.
Friendly reminder: It is not far from Shichahai (Houhai).
Conclusion:
That's enough. That's all the recommendations. I'll think about it and add it.
Finally, I'll give you some advice:
1, Beijing traffic is already blocked, so try to choose the subway. Rent is not safe.
Don't be afraid to get lost in Beijing. If you don't know, ask and look at the bus sign. Take a map of Beijing for example, the price is 4 yuan, and some vendors only sell it for 1 yuan. It's easy to get to go2map on the Internet, and you will know how to get there, so as long as you figure out where to go, you will definitely find it.
Be sure to look after your bag on the crowded bus in Xidan business district. Although the law and order in Beijing is quite good, you should be careful. Especially foreign tourists, you may have to carry your ID card with you, but don't separate it from your wallet! !
