Turns out, it was less "flowing movements" and more "a hundred slightly grumpy old people doing very serious stretches." Seriously, the concentration was intense! My question is, is there a less... competitive time to go for a peaceful morning stroll, or am I just too clumsy for the tai chi crew?

try the west side around 5:30 before the serious crowd even shows, the stone paths there stay quiet & the old guys doing chen-style tai chi near the wall don't care if u watch

The east gate lawn, around 6:30, before the tai chi crowd arrives.

I've got the online application open but I'm stuck on the part asking for a local address and phone number, which I don't have yet. Anyone know if I can put a temporary address or if I need to wait until I've got a lease?

Wait for the lease, address gets cross-checked.

yeah the fapiao system checks it against ur lease

Landlord's name on the contract matters more.

True, and the name has to match the fangben exactly, character for character, or the window rejects it.

cross-check happens at the lease stamp date too

Stamped date on the contract, not the move-in date.

Agree, but the online form lets you save a draft for 30 days.

Fair point, though the cross-check only bites once you file the annual reconciliation, not at initial registration.

honestly the phone number field trips up most people. you can use your hotel or serviced apartment number if u have one booked, they mainly need a reachable contact. the tax bureau at Jiuxianqiao usually accepts that for the initial registration.
