China at start of May, bad idea?
Apr 28, 2005 16:09
Hi there,

I've heard that the first two weeks are a bad time to go to China. I would be flying into and staying in Beijing for about 8 days. Would you strongly recommend against going there between May 5th - May 14th?? Will prices be that much more expensive and the city be that much more full of tourists??

Thanks!

That's true. Actually the train ticket from Xi'an to Beijing are all sold out now. So you can tell how popular Beijing would be as a tourism destination.

Do not suggest you travel during the golden week of May 1st to 7th, you'll see nothing except for the crowd.

I know many tickets are in the hands of those ticket mongers. Actually I've bought a ticket on May 1st from one of them:)
