I am wondering what you said is how much you spend from the airport to the city center. If it is, you spend about ¥150 (50minutes).

Hi
If you want to buy silk, you’d better go to Ruifuxiang(a store dealing in silk), Qianmen Street. There are a lot of shopping mall in Beijing. You don’t need to bring more.

Mrs.lie(Indonesia) said:

I want to ask which is cheaper Xidan, Yashou n Wanfujing?
Is there any other cheaper shopping place rather than those 3?
Thx.

Oct. 30,2009 21:17
Ms.Jane replied:

These three places have different flavor~ Please omit Wanfujing, which is mainly for travelers, where you could find some local products and time-honored shops. Xidan is much fashion and is fond of many young ladies. You could find some fashion and well-known brands here, such as H&M, Levi's, Zara... Yashou in Sanlitun is a clothing market, just like the famous Silk Market. So, you could purchase some clothes or shoes at very resonable price. Please don't forget to cut down the price.

Oct. 30,2009 21:00
Ms.Jane replied:

For the cheap and fashion ones, you should go to the wholesale market around Beijing Zoo. Here, you could find the lastest styles, but amazing cheap. Don't forget to cut down the price as low as possible.

i am just confused jianguomen and shindom hotel is that same? i don't know which one but when i was there last year i was stay infront of friendship city center and now i want to stay there... which one is?

Oct. 24,2009 04:20
Mr.Leo replied:

Hi, the Shindom Hotel has many branches in Beijing. It has set a branch hotel in Jianguomen. So the right name should be Shindom Hotel-Jianguomen Branch. The address is: 12, Jianhua Nan Lu, Jianguomen Waidajie. You could take the subway Line 1 or Line 2 to reach Jianguomen.

Mr.Stowe(Canada) said:

We will be in Beijing from 27 Oct to 31 Oct and want to shop. What are best items, where are they sold at good prices. We will be at the Grand Hyatt hotel.

Oct. 24,2009 04:13
Mr.Sam replied:

It seems that there is no very great sales in these department stores during this time. So, I think you could go to Qianmen Street and Wangfujing Street, whre you will find many time-honored shops, such as the silk, traditional Chinese shoes and nice handcrafts.
