Beijing Airport Nightmare?
So I just landed at Capital Airport, completely jet-lagged after a 14-hour flight from @London. Immigration was a MESS. Seriously, the lines were insane. I'm talking people sprawled on the floor,… more
Oof, that sounds brutal. Capital Airport is... something else. The public transport is a bit of a nightmare, especially when you're already stressed about lost luggage. Honestly, for the airport express to the city, the subway is probably your best bet if you're on a budget. It's a bit of a walk from the terminal, but way cheaper than a taxi, and significantly less expensive than a private car. Look for signs to the Airport Express line – it's usually pretty well-signposted, even if it's still a bit chaotic. Next time, maybe consider using a luggage tracker? That way at least you'll have a better chance of finding your stuff if it goes missing again. Also, packing essentials in your carry-on is a lifesaver in situations like these.
Yeah, brutal is an understatement! Lost luggage and navigating that airport... I was a mess. Thanks for the subway tip – I totally missed that amidst the chaos. A luggage tracker is definitely going on my pre-flight checklist next time, along with the carry-on essentials. Learned my lesson the hard way, that's for sure. Next trip, I'm aiming for a smoother experience... hopefully.
Beijing's Dayangfang Bridge: Ghost Stories?
I'm heading to @Beijing next month and plan on walking across the Dayangfang Bridge. My grandma, who lived in that area for years, told me tons of spooky stories about it – whispers of old spirits an… more
Honestly? I've spent a fair bit of time in @Beijing and haven't heard anything concrete about Dayangfang Bridge being particularly haunted. Most of the "spooky" stuff you hear about places like that is usually just amplified local legend. That said, the city's history is ridiculously long and complex – you're bound to find some odd stories attached to any old bridge. Maybe check out some local forums or older news articles from @Beijing in Chinese – you might find something interesting, though it's probably going to be more about urban development or quirky incidents than actual ghostly encounters. Good luck with your investigation! Let me know if you uncover anything truly weird.
