You will ofen come across some old grannies selling some flowers crowns or postcards on the way of your bicycle tour or bamboo rafting. To make some earning may be one of the reason, but I think mostly because they have not much thing to do and just want to find something to kill the time and get out of the house to meet more people for talking. Usually you could get their flower crowns for just 1 yuan, deadly cheap. I like to stop and communicate with them, although we cannot get through with each other. Anyway, I like that...

If you have a tourguide don't let them take you to those herbal remedy or jewelry trips that are just set up so they can make you buy stuff.

Don't give any begging children any money even if you feel bad cause if you give one a whole mob of them will chase you and tug at you. You might lose something. Run as fast as you can preferably back to your hotel.

Apart from the normal highlights in Beijng, many other sites are highly recommended, such as markets like the noted Silk Market,Yaxiu Matket, the Pearl Market.They all sell a wide varity of clothes, various local gifts, and pearls. The Panjiayuan Antique Market is open only on weekends, which that sells replica and also some real antiques.

To north of Beihai park,you will find the Sichahai lakes area which consists of the three lakes : Qianhai Lake , Houhai Lake , and Xihai Lake. There you can find many bars and restaurants. Of course, Sanlitun Bar Street is the area noted for a great number of bars.
