Orange Hotel Front Desk Coffee

Just got back from Beijing, we are two people.

First of all, we stayed at the Orange Hotel for 288 nights (Ctrip booked the room in advance), and it felt very good. It turns out that the front desk of Ximen Store is a glass room, a wooden platform and small tables and chairs. In the hutong, the environment is quite quiet, but it only takes two minutes to get to the main road. The room is clean, with wireless Internet access, goldfish and Rubik's cube (it says that if you are three-sided, you can change a cup of coffee at the front desk), although the room rate is not high. But it's really considerate to send two big peaches, two bottles of milk and two bags of cupcakes regularly every day. As for judging which hotel is more convenient to travel, it is best to look at this one which is closest to the subway station and not too far from the center.

We went to the Grand Theatre, Tiananmen National Flag, Forbidden City, 798 and Olympic Park for five days.

First of all, if you go early on the first day, you can refer to our itinerary. After we checked into the hotel, we rested in the hotel and then went to the National Grand Theatre at two o'clock. It's really worth a visit. The whole environment is spectacular. At the same time, buy tickets for the performance that night (it is best to book tickets online in advance, at least make sure there is a performance that day). It's useless to look at the periphery of the theater, but the essence is internal! Watching a performance is the real charm.

After buying the ticket, there is a bus to Wangfujing, only two stops, passing Tiananmen Square. If you are not afraid of being tired, you can walk through it, that is, through Tiananmen Square. However, you should know that the National Mall is very big, so I suggest you don't save that money (get a 0.4 yuan bus card at the subway station) and save your energy to visit Wangfujing.

You can go back around six o'clock, because performances usually start at 7: 30 in the evening and enter the venue at 6: 30, so hurry up. It is impolite to be late for these official performances. I guess I won't let you in after the start, and I can leave some time to look at the interior design, which is very worthwhile. You are not allowed to bring drinks and cameras in, but you can bring mobile phones.

You can watch the flag drop on the way back to the theater, but you should check the time of flag drop online. If it is too late, it may affect performance. Remember that the time for raising and lowering the national flag is different every two days. Remember to check the time of the day online. In addition, the atmosphere of raising and lowering the flag is different. Obviously, the flag-raising ceremony was much more serious and formal, and all lanes were blocked for a long time. That kind of atmosphere should actually be experienced.

Anyway, after watching the performance, you can shoot the night view of the Grand Theatre. You can shoot a stable night scene without a tripod, because there is a railing beside the theater pool, so just put the camera on it. Hehe, of course, if you are demanding, you should do it yourself.

So the first day ended. Take the pre-planned bus as soon as you get out of the theater. It's difficult to take a taxi there (parking is not allowed in principle). You can consider taking a bus or sitting where you can take a taxi and then changing to a taxi. If we take a chance, we may not get a taxi very late, and we will collapse that day.

The next day, we can get up early to watch the flag raising. We get up at 4:30, go out at 5:00 and raise the flag at 5:45. We have been surrounded by the crowd. After raising the flag, we took photos in Tiananmen Square as a souvenir, and then took a taxi to Deshengmen (15) or took the No.5 bus next to Tiananmen Square, where there was a 9 19 tourist bus to the Badaling section of the Great Wall.

One thing to remember here is never to take a one-day tour of Beijing, even if it is state-run. When you go to Beijing, the streets are full of these tourists, so don't stop to listen, especially when you go to the Great Wall. Some one-day tourists will trick you into taking a low-cost one-day tour with him and booking tickets, but in fact they will take you to the Great Wall of Shuiguan in Badaling, which is a small scenic spot and nothing compared with Badaling. ! Money is not a big problem. The most serious thing is that I spent thousands of dollars on a fake version, which is unfair.

The car-following guide to Badaling will force you to buy a round-trip ticket for the pulley (***60 yuan/person), and the ticket is 100 yuan per person, but I later found out that I was cheated. That pulley is a poorly managed hand tour in a bear park at the foot of the Great Wall. I charged you 30 yuan for pulling you a distance, and then I got off for a mobile game ... I was very depressed ... In fact, there was a cable car on the Great Wall, remember? ! ! Cross the high mountain side and go directly to the second highest beacon tower. It's spectacular. You can take that one if you want, but you have to think about how to avoid the entanglement of the tour guide. Also, if it's cloudy, it's best to buy a raincoat and a cheaper one, around 0.5 yuan.

In fact, after all, the Great Wall is only considered as climbing it. The guide on the bus will tell you that there are many risks, many risks. The purpose is to let you buy a sliding ticket. Actually, you don't have to be afraid. I will climb with a middle-aged woman who weighs more than 160 kg. It won't be too hard. When I am tired, I will stop. The scenery is magnificent, especially in the morning, in a fog, there is no artistic conception. Process is very important, and process is the essence.

Just take 9 19 when you come back, but you need to find out which point is the nearest station, and you may have to take a taxi.

If you go early, you will probably have enough fun at two or three in the afternoon. Remember to bring dry food and water. It's not easy to buy there. There are only smelly toilets and ten cups of instant Nestle coffee next to it. ....

If I fly the next day, I may go back to the hotel to get my luggage and prepare to go to the airport. Remember, going to the airport takes a lot of time. I have been on business trips for no less than 50 times and on business flights for no less than 90 times, and this time I almost fell into the hands of the Capital Airport. We have made a reservation for two and a half hours. We wanted to take the airport bus, but the traffic was too heavy. It is recommended to take the subway, but the airport in Beijing unexpectedly slows down and stops. You have to open the door yourself, which is divided into Terminal 3 and Terminal 2. Be sure to call the airport in advance to find out which terminal your flight leaves from. The distance between them takes more than half an hour by car and more than 20 minutes by subway. If you get off the wrong terminal after catching the plane, it's basically over. I asked the business people sitting in the subway that China Southern Airlines is No.2 and Air China is No.3, not pressing the button.

As for Quanjude, we both ate more than 200 pieces, which was fairly cheap. Because of the poor service, we were left out in the cold and looked down upon. He will give you an attitude if you don't order a table full of dishes. Such a famous restaurant has no professional ethics service spirit at all ... it's not a foreign tourist or a politician, so be careful. ...

Anyway, the hotel booked the air tickets in advance, found the scenic spots to go to, and then went online alone to read the information and see what needs attention. When everything is ready, you can turn everything into luck and get ready.

I wish you a safe and happy trip to the capital ~ ~ ~
