One day trip to Shanhaiguan

Can I collect the tickets to and back at PEK airport express train station together?

Thank you for your inquiry.

For rail tickets, you need to collect the tickets from a railway station ticket counter instead. Airports, subway stations cannot work for rail ticket collection. You can collect the ticket for both trips from your departure station to Shanhaiguan 1.5 hours before departure time. Hope this information can help you.

Can I visit the First Pass under Heaven and Laolongtou if holding the 144 ours transit visa?

I plan to do a one day trip there and Shanhaiguan station is the right one to stop right. Which bus should I take to the First Pass then to Laolongtou and finally back?

It is ok to visit Hebei area if you hold that transit visa. After your arrival at the railway station, you may just walk to First Pass, about 1.5km, 20min walking. After your visiting, you can take bus No. 25 to Laolongtou and still the same bus back to the station.
