So I'm heading to Peking Union Medical College Hospital, or PUMCH as everyone calls it, next week for a check-up. Heard the place is legendary, but also...intense. My friend, a Beijing resident, tol… more

Yeah, PUMCH is a beast. The sheer scale of it is something else. My wife had to go there once – absolute chaos, but somehow, they managed it. Their system is seriously impressive. I wouldn't call it well-oiled, more like a highly stressed, incredibly efficient, perfectly choreographed swarm of activity. Forget trying to navigate intuitively; download their app. Seriously. It'll show you where to go, what departments are where, and even estimated wait times. It saved our sanity. Also, prepare for crowds. Like, serious crowds. Bring a book, maybe some snacks. And don't be afraid to ask for help – the staff, despite the craziness, are generally pretty helpful, even if communication might be a bit of a challenge sometimes.

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.
