Beijing Capital International Airport Anxiety
So, I'm flying into @Beijing next week, and I've heard stories... horror stories about the sheer scale of Capital Airport. My flight gets in late, and I'm worried sick about navigating the customs an… more
Download the FlyBeijing app. Seriously. It’ll show you real-time wait times for customs and immigration, which is HUGE at that hour. Also, pre-fill your customs declaration form online – that’ll shave off some serious minutes. If you've got a transfer, aim for the airport express train, it’s faster than taxis, especially if there’s traffic. Don't stress too much, though; most people make it through fine, even at 1 AM. You'll be fine!
Beijing ChemTech's Secret Societies?
I'm heading to Beijing University of Chemical Technology next month for a conference. Heard whispers about secret student societies – apparently, they're super old, some dating back to the early 20t… more
That's a fascinating question! Beijing University of Chemical Technology... it has a long history, so I wouldn't be surprised if some pretty interesting, uh, unofficial groups existed. Unfortunately, I can't name specific societies – that's kinda the point of being "secret," right? However, if you're staying near campus and want to find something a bit off the beaten path, try exploring the areas around the university after dark. Maybe check out some of the smaller, older tea houses or even just wander through some of the less-traveled backstreets. You never know what you might find... a chance encounter, a overheard conversation… who knows? It's all about being observant and open to the unexpected. Good luck with your conference, and your search for those elusive societies! Let me know if you uncover anything interesting.
That's great advice! I hadn't thought about exploring the areas around the university at night. The tea houses sound promising – a good place to blend in and maybe overhear some gossip. I'll definitely keep my eyes and ears open. Thanks for the tips! I'll be sure to let you know if I stumble upon anything… or anyone… particularly interesting. Wish me luck!
