Beijing is a great city and it changes before your eyes but there are a few things you should know before you leave. First, a travel book that does not have the names and address written in Chinese characters is USELESS in China. Cabbies do not speak or read English so dont waste your money on a book that doesnt really prepare you for your trip and there is no public transportation.
Stay in a Western hotel if you do not have some grasp of the Chinese languauge. Beijing is huge! and it is not possible to wing it.
Print some maps from the internet before you go, it will help a lot.
Taxis are very cheap and despite what you are told they are mostly very honest.
Having said this, Beijing is a wonderful city! Vibrant and beautiful and the Chinese are gracious and helpful. The food can be amazing if you do a little research. The parks are beautiful and definately worth seeing. I wouldnt suggest you try and do the Forbidden City, and the Temple of Heaven. Do one or the other, they are very large and similar.
The great wall is a must.
The Bei Hai Park is a must.
Songzhuang is a must for art inthusiats as is 798 although it is over priced.
The best food I had in Beijing was at "Made In China" in the Grand Hyatt. Great!!!
