More and more people put Beijing into their travel schedule. Since most know little about the capital of China, we'd like to introduce some travel tips to all of you; Accommodations: Although there're hundreds of 2-star hotels to accomodate foreign visitors in Beijing, a rented apartment is a better choice for those staying for an extended period of time. You can find one through the agent. But make sure the landlored is legal. Medical services: There are a few hospitals which accept visitors from other countries, So it's necessary to take a look at the list: International Medical Center\Asia Emergency Assistance\International SOS First Aid Center\Sino-Japanese Friendship Hospital\Beijing Union Medical College Hospital\Beijing Hospital\Friendship Hospital Last, few places provide quality tap water. Take a bottle of mineral water with you outside.

I would love to come to China on the Trans Siberian Railway all the way from Moscow. It would be fascinating to arrive in Beijing on the longest train trip in my life. I would probably stay for five days and so I would look for locally owned guest house. I would buy tap water and do self catering. I would take a day trip independently to see the Great Wall. I am sure that it is the most amazing sight. I am usually healthy and I take care of myself when I am traveling. I did get sick and fall down a drain when I was in Malaysia so that wasn't the best of luck. Happy traveling and thanks for the tips.
