Take Bus No.34 at Qinhuangdao Railway Station and change to Bus 22 at the end of the first bus route. Get off at Nandaihe and suggest you take a taxi to the hotel. It costs 70RMB by taxi. Nandaihe and Beidaihe areas are good places to get around.

Will you suggest International School in Beijing or Tianjin is nearer?
Jun. 13,2009 02:42
Ms.Sisley replied:
Compared from location, it is closer from Qinhuangdao to Tianjin than to Beijing. But almost the same~ However, Beijing has much more international schools, you could see a brief list at: http://www.travelchinaguide.com/cityguides/beijing/schools.htm
As for the schools in Tianjin, the well-known one is the Tianjin International School (http://www.tiseagles.com/). Others have TEDA International School and Tianjin Rego International School (http://www.regoschool.org/).

I am going to stay in QinHuangDao with my husband and family in Aug 2009. Could you advise me where to locate school for my 7yrs old boy and how to courier parcel from Malaysia to QHD? TQ

Mr.Tom replied:
I know there is a Bilingual School located in the Economic & Technological Development Zone, Qinhuangdao. However, I think it is much easier to find a good quality international school in Beijing, very close to Qinhuangdao.
As for the parcel, just need a valid mailing address in Qinhuangdao. You could send it through your local post office in Malaysia.
