I went alone to Beijing in July. The subway there is fantastic and easy to understand. I didn't have any problems, I wasn't worried about safety. I loved watching the giant pandas at the local zoo, the Summer Palace was great. I practically visited everything, except the Great Wall of China, by subway. The Great Wall is the only thing for which I booked a tour. The most important tip is to get a VPN before leaving, which will allow you to use things like Google and Facebook when you're there.

you can walk lonely on the street at any time, no robbery, very few theft, havent heard of rape. there maybe beggers just ignore them, homeless people are usually sent back to their home town by police, so its rare too.
Posted: July 13, 2024Very safe city - I’ve been walking at night since teenage life and never had issues. I would recommend solo famale to consider this city as it is safe and easy to get around. Also more people in Beijing speak English than other Chinese regions.

My trip to Beijing was amazing. Highlights included hiking the Great Wall, exploring the historic Forbidden City, and enjoying the serene Summer Palace. The food was delicious, from Peking duck to street snacks. The blend of ancient and modern made it unforgettable.

A 24-hour stop in Beijing, but enough to get to know the city. I was unlucky to be in a heavy smog, but nevertheless the walk was beautiful. A big plus is low prices, the staff at the hotel / restaurant / store speak English and a convenient and understandable metro, minus very long distances, from point A to point B, you need to walk from 30 minutes to an hour (although it seems close on the map), strong smog, without a normal VPN, you can not get to the Internet. An interesting experience, I would be glad to return to China again)

I am a Chinese girl who is a sophomore in university. My major is Tamil and culture studies. Tamil is used in India, Sri Lanka and Singapore. I do enjoy traveling and immersing myself in different cultures. My plan is to visit Europe, Australia and southeast China before I graduate. This summer vacation I will go to Cambridge University for study and then I will go to London for visit. I really want to talk with this world 🥰
