How long would it take me to reach beijing´s major tourist attractions starting at the Xizhimen subway station onto the circular line (I guess is the 2nd line). 2. Is there such thing as a one month pass or even a several trips pass? How about a student fare? 3. Are university canteen meals cheap? 4. How much could a bicycle cost? Thanks everybody.

Hi,Doudehat,

1. How long would it take me to reach beijing´s major tourist attractions starting at the Xizhimen subway station onto the circular line (I guess is the 2nd line).
From Xizhimen to Tian'anmen Square or Forbidden City,take line2 and change line1,arrive Tian'anmen west or east!!!or arrive Qianmen directly;From Xizhimen to Badaling Great Wall,you should take a bus in Jishuitan subway station,NO.919;From Xizhimen to Summer Palace,I think NO.375 is ok!Where will you plan to go to visit in Beijing???

2. Is there such thing as a one month pass or even a several trips pass? How about a student fare?
They have a month pass,but they don't sell it now.
-------------------------------------------------

3. Are university canteen meals cheap?
Yes,it is very cheep!
-------------------------------------------------

4. How much could a bicycle cost?
If you buy a GIANT,about 300---700RMB,but if you want to buy a second-hand one,only 30---100RMB.

I´ve further questions: 1.I´ve heard that a lunch menu in the university can cost you about 4 RMB, is that correct? 2. Where are the best places to buy a bike (a second hand one or a new one)? Thanks a lot.
