A Digital Nomad Guide to Beijing

Beijing Visa

The government of the People’s Republic of China allows holders of normal passports issued by some countries to travel to Mainland China for tourism or business purposes for up to 15, 30 or 90 days without having to obtain a visa. Visitors of other nationalities, as well as residents of Hong Kong and Macau, are required to obtain either a visa or a permit prior to arrival, depending on their nationality. 

Holders of ordinary passports issued by the following 19 countries do not need a visa to enter China as long as their trip does not last longer than the visa-free period listed here: Armenia (90 days), Bosnia and Herzegovina (90 days), San Marino (90 days), Mauritius (60 days), Bahamas (30 days), Barbados (30 days), Belarus (30 days), Ecuador (30 days), Brunei (15 days), Japan (15 days), Singapore (15 days).

Because Hong Kong and Macau maintain their independent border control policies, ordinary Chinese visas are valid for Mainland China only and are not valid for Hong Kong or Macau, so travelers must apply for separate visas for Hong Kong or Macau should they require one for traveling to these regions.

All non-Chinese travelers as well as Hong Kong and Macau permanent residents who stay in Mainland China for more than 24 hours must register with the local PSBs. When staying in a hotel, the registration is usually done as a part of the check-in process. When staying in a private home, however, the visitor must physically report to the local PSB within 24 hours of arrival for cities or 72 hours for rural areas. All visa-free passengers, including those in transit who stay for more than 24 hours, must adhere to the rule, as failure to comply can result in a fine or being detained by PSB for up to 15 days.

Also, holders of non-Chinese travel documents aged between 14 and 70 will be fingerprinted upon entry, with the exception of holders of diplomatic passports.

As the information could change, it is advisable to contact the nearest Chinese embassy to check the requirements in each particular case.

Culture and Food in Beijing

In Beijing everything related to food will be new to you. The Chinese food of your country is possibly adapted to your culture, so here you will find very different menus. Some typical dishes of Beijing food are steamed dumplings called dim sum, hot and sour soup, and Kung Pao chicken, sautéed with peanuts and vegetables.

It would be unthinkable to visit the city and not eat the best-known dish of its gastronomy in any of its many restaurants. This mythical roast duck dish is served in the form of slices and can be wrapped in a kind of crepe, mixed with vegetables. If budget is not a problem, some of the most recommended and well-known sites are Deyuan Roast Duck, Da Dong Roast Duck, Duck de Chine or Li Qun. You can also go to Qianmen Quanjude (30 Qianmen Street, Chongwen District 崇文区 前门 大街 30 号) which is one of the oldest restaurants in the capital, dating back to 1864, and they prepare a great Peking duck. Recommended dishes are: Quanjude Roast Duck (全聚德 精品 烤鸭), Roast Duck Bone Soup (鸭 架 汤), Fried Mushrooms, and Shrimp Balls (宫 爆 鲜 菌 虾球). Prices start at 18 USD per person.

Din Tai Fung Restaurant (24 Xinyuan Xili Middle Street, Chaoyang District 朝阳 区 新 源 西里 中 街 24 号) is part of a worldwide chain specialized in meatballs. The quality of service and food is high, and its Taiwanese origins ensure that it is friendly to foreigners and the prices are reasonable. The menu has English translations, with lots of images. Featured dishes are steamed buns (特色 小笼 包), pork and vegetable wontons (菜肉 馄饨), and shrimp fried rice (虾仁 炒饭). Prices start at USD 15 per person.

Hai Di Lao (8 Gongti North Road, Sanlitun, Chaoyang District 朝阳 区 三里屯 工 体 北路 8 号) is another huge chain with excellent quality ingredients. It makes the most famous hot sauce in the country and offers excellent service. I recommend ordering the crispy meat (酥 肉), soft shrimp (虾 滑), mushrooms (金针菇), fresh noodles (手 拉面), sticky rice with mango (芒果 糯米 饭). Prices start at $ 22 per person.

Shanshui Jian Yang-Xiezi Hotpot (22 Longtan Road, Dongcheng District 东城 区 龙潭 路 22 号), located in Longtan Park, is a great place to try Sichuan province cuisine, for example hot pot which is my favorite Chinese dish. Their stew broth is cooked with a variety of local ingredients, and the atmosphere is traditional, making for an authentic experience. Prices start at 10 USD per person.

You can also go to Wangfujing, one of the main shopping streets in Beijing. It concentrates a good number of shopping centers, shops of all kinds and restaurants of the best-known food chains. But, in addition, in one of the streets that cross it, in Donghuamen, there is a peculiar night market. In this market dozens of small stalls are established where you can find skewers of seahorses and starfish, plates of scorpions, cockroaches and spiders. If you want to try some of the rarest “delicacies” of Chinese cuisine, take a walk through this exotic market.

Finally, you can enjoy a traditional tea and its preparation ceremony. Two of the best teahouses in Beijing, which are worth a visit, are Lao She Teahouse and Sentosa Teahouse. Also, around the Bell and Drum Tower and Houhai Lake you can find plenty of tea houses.

Beijing Nightlife

Beijing will not only make sure you have a full and interesting day, but it will also present you with colorful options for nightlife. Sanlitun Bar Street and the surrounding area of ​​the embassies in the Chaoyang district are the quintessential bar and nightclub areas of the city. Here locals, expats and tourists come together to enjoy its abundant leisure offer. It is a good place to experience modern China after a day exploring its historical past.

V Plus Lounge (Top Floor, Building No.3, China Red Street, Bing-2 Gongti Donglu, Sanlitun) is a nightclub and bar, owned by Chinese pop singer Na Ying, offering a lively dance floor and bar on the rooftop. V Plus Lounge also serves delicious bistro food.

Destino (7 工 体 西路, Chaoyang Qu Beijing Shi) is an icon of Beijing nightclub culture as it is the main gay bar in the city. This is the place for the LGBTQ group to come together and celebrate their lifestyle.

Houhai Bar Street is also an ideal place for you to enjoy the nightlife. It is close to Shichahai Lake and the Beijing Hutongs. It is a popular place at night and very frequented by many people due to the beautiful scenery and the variety of wines. Here you can walk around the lake while you drink your favorite cocktail. A group of bars, restaurants and cafes have settled along the street since 2000. The highlights of these bars are the fine drinks, the excellent services and the reasonable prices. Between the recommended bars here you can find Buddha Bar (2 Yindianqiao, Shichahai Lake, Xicheng District), a popular bar loved by many young people. Renovated with lakeside seating, it is decorated with antique furniture and some Buddhist cultural elements. It is open from midnight to 2 AM. Babyace (6 Gongti Xilu Gongti West Gate, Beijing), on the other hand, which introduces the concept of club lounge and has completely changed the pattern of nightclubs in Beijing. Unlike other nightclubs, it has international music of all kinds. Music is the soul of Babyface. His fast-paced house music makes people always want to dance. It is open every day from 8 PM to 5 AM.

 Mix Club is another solid bet for dancing to hip hop and drum n’ bass. You’ll also find weekend parties, a lineup of foreign DJs, and the occasional celebrity sitting here.

Another alternative is At Lantern, where you will party till dawn while Chinese DJs spin underground techno and progressive house. The dance floor is large and the cocktails well-priced. 

Things to do in Beijing

In the heart of the city is one of the most famous architectural complexes in the country: the Forbidden City. It is a gigantic group of almost 1.000 buildings, considered a World Heritage Site, which occupies an area of ​​72 hectares. The Forbidden City was the official residence for Chinese emperors for more than 500 years, beginning in the early 15th century. More than 24 emperors, during the Ming and Qing dynasties, accumulated palaces, extensive courtyards and numerous pavilions, all of them built in the particular traditional Chinese style. The complex was only open to the court and its most direct subjects and servants, including the imperial concubines, and the rest of the population was barred from entering. Today it remains open to the public.

North of the Forbidden City, on top of Coal Hill, is one of the best viewpoints in the city: Jingshan Park. From here you can see the entire impressive expanse of the Forbidden City and the entire center of Beijing if air pollution allows it. The hill is artificial, since it was constituted by the accumulation of all the earth that was extracted during the construction of the palace moats.

One of the classic activities is drifting aimlessly through the alleys of hutong areas. Hutongs are traditional and ancient dwellings with a square inner courtyard where several family members lived together. 

You can also discover the largest square in the world: Tiananmen Square. Located to the south of the Forbidden City, this square whose dimensions reach 880 x 500 meters, was built in 1949 as part of the acts of the constitution of the People’s Republic of China. In 1989, Tiananmen Square was the scene of acts of political repression that went around the world. It takes its name from the so-called Tiananmen Gate, which gives access to the Forbidden City. In the center of the colossal square stands a granite obelisk almost 40 meters high, erected as a Monument to the Heroes of the People. Also, at this point is the Mausoleum of Mao Zedong, where you can visit his embalmed body, which receives continuous pilgrimages and offerings of all kinds.

The Temple of the Lamas is the most important Buddhist building in China located outside the territory of Tibet. Built as a palace in 1694 under the Qing dynasty, it later became a monastery. It is a complex made up of various traditional buildings, adorned with golden roofs. In his style he mixes Tibetan and Chinese characteristics. Huge incense burners are distributed in the courtyards of the temple in which the faithful place hundreds of sticks. In the Wanfu Ge pavilion is the impressive statue of Maitreya with a height of 18 meters. The figure is carved from sandalwood in one piece.

The two mythical Towers of the Drum and the Bell are iconic constructions that marked the history and the vital rhythm of the inhabitants of the city. The Drum Tower is close to 47 meters high and the 25 drums that were used to mark the hours can still be seen today. Located in front of it, the Bell Tower is a brick and stone building of almost 48 meters. At present it conserves the huge bell made of bronze, 7 meters high and weighing close to 63 tons. Capable of emitting an audible sound 20 kilometers away, this bell was in operation until 1924.

The Beijing Summer Palace encompasses gardens, forest areas and a large part of Kunming Lake. Located north of Beijing, it was used as an imperial residence and later as the seat of the Chinese government. In all its extension, of almost 300 hectares, it integrates more than 3.000 buildings and constructions with the characteristic Chinese architecture. It also has a huge artificial lake designed in the shape of a peach. Highlights in the complex include the Hill of Longevity, the Tower of the Fragrance of Buddha, the Garden of Virtue and Harmony, the huge covered gallery, formed by profusely decorated wooden beams, known as the Great Corridor, the bridge of the Seventeen Arches or the curious Marble Boat. The enclosure is huge so it is convenient to dedicate a whole day to it.

Beijing has beautiful corners in which to rest with enchanting natural landscapes such as Beihai Park, one of the largest Chinese gardens. The park has buildings and places of great interest such as the White Dagoba or the Buddhist temples of Yong’an and Chanfu. In its lake you can take a boat ride, enjoying the scenery.

The Great Wall of China does not pass through the city of Beijing, but it is nearby and foreigners often visit it from here. It is one of the seven wonders of the world and measures almost 9.000 kilometers in length. Its state of conservation is not very good, except in some areas, which are the most visited and become crowded on many occasions. One of the most frequented areas is Badaling, less than 80 kilometers away. Quieter is the mountainous area of ​​Mutianyu, 90 kilometers away, equipped with a cable car and a chairlift.

The interesting tombs of the Ming dynasty are located 50 kilometers away. In this tour the mausoleums of most of the emperors of that dynasty meet, along with those of some empresses and courtiers. You will be able to see different marble statues representing the emperor’s honorary guard and animals, both mythological and real.

The Temple of Heaven, built in the 15th century, is the largest circular temple in all of China, and is declared a World Heritage Site. Its extraordinary harmony and rounded shapes, symbolizing the sky, were conceived as a way of thanking the gods for good harvests. The temple is surrounded by a park frequently used to practice tai chi, play cards or dance.

The modern Beijing Television Tower boasts 365° views of the city. It was built in 1994 and has a height of 405 meters, although much of that length corresponds to the antenna. At about 221 meters high it has a restaurant and at 225 meters it has a covered and fully glazed platform to observe the city during winter days. For summer days, the upper platform is uncovered, located at a height of 238 meters from the ground.

A large part of Beijing’s art shops and the most advanced design studios are brought together in the 798 Art District. Considered the most bohemian and chic area of ​​the Chinese capital, it is a very interesting visit to discover the most innovative artistic expressions.

The best-known market in Beijing is the Xiushui Silk Market. It is a huge shopping center with five floors and more than 1.700 stalls with all kinds of articles. Apart from cheap silk garments, imitation products from the main brands of clothing, handbags, watches and a myriad of other items predominate. Haggling is absolutely essential, because prices are not fixed and traders often ask for large sums at the beginning.

Chinese opera has been declared an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. It is a very complex artistic manifestation that combines different disciplines, such as singing and recitation, acrobatics and even martial arts. The theme is closely related to history and politics.

Best Time to Visit Beijing

Beijing has a continental climate characterized by cold, dry winters and hot, humid summers.

Summers, from June to August, have usually high temperatures that in general exceed 30 ºC and do not drop below 22 ºC. Unlike the colder months, the probability of rain is very high because of the monsoons.

Winters in Beijing, which begin in late November and last until March, are cold with little chance of rain. Minimum temperatures easily drop to 5 ºC below zero and hardly exceed 12 ºC. During the winter months, the days when fog covers practically the entire city and melts with air pollution are very common. Despite the low temperatures, the winter months are quite dry and snowfalls are rare.

The best seasons to travel to Beijing are spring (from March to May) and autumn (from September to November), since this way you can avoid the most extreme temperatures and abundant summer rains.

Beijing for Families

Families moving to China have great challenges to overcome, especially in terms of the language barrier and culture shock. However, the country ranks especially high when it comes to child safety and the affordability of child care. In addition, in Chinese culture, children are very important and are usually welcomed by everyone.

The schools in Beijing are among the best in China and offer options for expat parents in public, private and international institutions. However, an education in Beijing can be expensive as a foreigner, as you will have to pay higher fees than local families or the high prices of private schools. It is a good idea to try to negotiate an education grant as part of your relocation package.

The basic public education system consists of preschool, primary and secondary. Primary school generally begins at age six and lasts for six years, followed by junior and senior high school, where students follow an academic or vocational program. The main concern of Beijing’s public schools is to prepare students for the national exam to get accepted to university. Creativity and individual thinking are second only to logical thinking and analytical skills.

Local private schools in Beijing generally cater to wealthy locals. Academic standards in public schools are often considered better. Some schools have a foreign curriculum with a Chinese requirement, while others have a national curriculum with a strong emphasis on English.

International English language schools in Beijing generally enroll students aged four to 18 and provide a wide range of sports and cultural activities. Some only accept foreign passports, some accept a small percentage of local students, and others are completely mixed. Depending on the school, expatriate students may continue with the curriculum of their home country or pursue an International Baccalaureate program. Although most international schools teach in English, many are in other languages like French and German. Many international schools are located in suburban areas of Beijing which can be a long drive from the city center. Tuition is similar to that of international schools around the world. However, getting a place in an international school is difficult and should be negotiated with your employer before accepting a contract.

Living in Beijing

Beijing Transportation

Because not many people own a car, Beijing has excellent public transportation with an extensive subway and bus network. Although you will soon discover that the means of transport is sometimes easy to use and other days you will have a claustrophobic experience or you will get lost. Keep in mind that few people speak English so it is always a good idea to have a phone and a contact to call who speaks both languages ​​in case you need help.

The metro and bus lines are the main means of public transport and circulate throughout the city and to the outskirts of it. The standard of these systems is high. There is no monthly subscription or multi-day ticket. You can buy a rechargeable IC card, called Yikatong 一卡通, which you can use for both the subway and buses. Look for the blue sign that says IC Card in one of the large subway stations.

The subway is quite easy to use, with signs in English and pinyin (phonetically written Chinese characters).

In addition to buses, trolleybuses also operate in the city, particularly within the third ring. Buses are difficult for foreigners because the signs are only in pinyin and Chinese characters but not in English. Also, most of the time people will not speak English and learning the bus system is much more complicated than the subway. Buses in Beijing operate with standard fares depending on the distance traveled.

The suburban train service takes you to the surrounding districts outside the city and is known as BCR (Beijing City Rail) or Beijing Suburban Railway. This service is operated separately from the metro system.

Taxis charge a basic fee for a 3 kilometers taxi ride and additional charges are incurred for additional distances. Keep in mind that rates go up after 11 PM. Taxis are fairly easy to use as long as you know where you are going and have it written in Chinese characters because most drivers don’t speak English and are sometimes confused by western pronunciation. You have to be wide awake because scams are common, but never too serious. The number of taxis in service decreases overnight. Ride-sharing apps, such as DiDi, allow you to track drivers and know the price of the ride in advance.

Pedicabs are rickshaws with seats behind; powered by gasoline or by a human. You should make sure to negotiate the price before getting on, especially if you are in a tourist location. You have to know the price in advance, which is generally less than that of a taxi.

Sanlunche, is a three-wheeled car usually silver in color powered by a moped. The fare is similar to that of regular taxis and must be agreed in advance.

If you want to drive your own car, you will not be able to do so as soon as you arrive because China requires foreigners residing in China to obtain a Chinese driver’s license. Obtaining the license plates to own a car is the real challenge. I recommend that you first learn the traffic patterns before deciding if you want to drive in Beijing.

Cycling is a common and fast way to get around. However, city air pollution is an impediment to cycling on certain days. Another option is an electric bike or a gasoline scooter. Many do not require a license. Tying the bicycle to something immovable is crucial because there are many thefts. There are also several companies operating electric bike rental services, linked to a phone app, which can be found and dropped off at various locations in the city.

Fitness and Health

The air pollution in Beijing is very high and many times you are not able to see the building in front of you from the tenth floor. For this reason, outdoor activities are not as recommended as indoor activities. Also, Beijing is not like any other city. The levels of technology and luxury can be soaring here. Get ready to train in the best gyms you’ve ever seen.

SpaceCycle (N4-40A, F4, Taikoo Li North, 19 Sanlitunbei Lu) is known for its trendy and upbeat environment. It mixes music, technology, and pop culture to provide a close-knit instructor and peer support system, fuel individuals’ training with upbeat music, and offer signature music-themed cycling and barred classes. It is open daily between 7:30 AM and 10 PM. Prepare to pay around 2.300 USD for unlimited classes per year or 790 USD for 30 classes.

Le Wellness (5/F, Xinzhongguan Shopping Center, 19 Zhongguancun Street) is situated in the Gate City Mall, very convenient for IT professionals, high school students and college students in the Zhongguancun area. Here you will have all the facilities you need for your daily training. It is open daily between 7 AM and 10 PM and it costs around 600 USD per year. Much cheaper than SpaceCycle.

Hosa Fitness (B1, 29 Dongzhong Street, East Gate Plaza) has tons of machines, all shiny and well maintained. There are plenty of benches for every conceivable type of barbell press. The setup would be perfect for someone who wants to isolate muscles and work them from every angle. It is open daily between 9 AM and 10 PM and it costs around 100 per class.

Khoo Teck Puat Gymnasium (Peking University, 5 Yiheyuan Lu) is an indoor arena originally constructed for the 2008 Summer Olympics. Nowadays is a sports complex including a fitness club, swimming pool, courts, and facilities for a variety of sports including badminton, table tennis, squash and billiards. It is open daily between 9 AM and 10 PM and it costs around 152 per year. One of the cheapest and more complete ones in town.

Beijing People

People in Beijing are amazing with Western foreigners. In general, they are very friendly and if they overcome the barrier of shame they will help you.

The biggest problem I had is with the concept of “losing face” for which many times they don’t want to admit that they don’t know something in order to not be ashamed or look bad in front of others. It is something very cultural. Therefore, many times when I was lost and trying to get someone to help me, many people continued to pretend that I did not exist when I was literally talking to them in their faces. But once they pass that barrier, they are usually extremely kind to the point that sometimes you will be embarrassed.

They have many superstitions and here it is not frowned upon to assume them. For example, in the elevators of the buildings many times numbers are skipped and thus the third floor is called the fourth floor, the same with the sixth and other numbers. The 3 and the 6 are bad luck therefore they tend to avoid them. Still those apartments are cheaper. The same goes for phone numbers, a number with many 6s will cost much less than one with favorable numbers.

Regarding skin color, a taboo in many countries but not so much here, for Chinese society the whiter and more transparent the better. It is an age-old rule that is because farm workers used to tan while rich people and royalty did not. For this reason, in general, they go out on sunny days with umbrellas to protect themselves from the sun and many times they go to the beach with clothes and try not to be in the sun. There are even electric scooters that come with a giant built-in umbrella. Also, if you go to the supermarket you will realize that it is very difficult to find products without bleach. Both soaps and creams have chemical skin bleaches.

Chinese society is very different from any Western society even in the way that family and friends are structured in their mind. Family is the most important thing to them. Friends and the network of contacts are basically the same and they are very careful with what they say and how they look since they don’t separate them into two different categories. Looking bad with a friend can mean looking bad with your business network too. Here the concept of “losing face” appears again since they consider that if you look bad with a person that will be reflected in your entire network of friends / contacts.

In addition, in China, what you see is very important. For example, there are many people who perhaps have a very good car but do not have a home of their own and sometimes sleep in the car. Also, people who are dedicated to cleaning homes but who have a gold Rolex. For them what you see shows how well they are doing and that will determine whether or not others will want to do business with them.

Chinese society is very different and too complex to understand. I advise you to try to clear your mind and learn everything again as a child, without judging from your current culture.

Beijing Insurance and Medical Care

In the past, Beijing expats used to go to Hong Kong or return to their own country to deal with many health problems, but now there are several high-quality health care centers in Beijing where you can receive care similar to what you are used to receiving in your country. The embassies in Beijing now only recommend that you return home for the most serious health problems.

Many patients travel to Beijing just to see a renowned doctor at one of the many hospitals located there. Beijing’s public hospitals not only serve residents, but patients also come from all over China as the city has specialists from all areas. As a result, most of Beijing’s public hospitals have long waiting periods and long lines. In contrast, private hospitals often have short waiting periods and English-speaking medical staff. In fact, you can also find doctors and other health professionals who speak German, French, Japanese, Spanish, and other languages. Some of them are even expats from western countries. High-level private international clinics, such as the Beijing United Family Hospital, are one of the options for foreigners. These private medical companies can provide faster medical appointments and urgent medical treatment.

Private healthcare treatment has become extremely expensive in Beijing, sometimes at the same cost level as in the United States. The cost of a standard private hospital room can be in the thousands of US dollars per night.

Many expats working in Beijing can qualify for the local public health insurance system. However, public health insurance plans do not meet most of the needs of expats, especially if you want to receive treatment in a private facility or outside of China. Medical treatment fees in Beijing are relatively high, and expats may find that they still have to pay a certain amount of copayment when they go to public hospitals.

This is why it is essential to obtain an international health insurance plan that provides hospital coverage, outpatient treatment, emergency medical evacuation, routine medical check-ups, dental and vision care, and coverage options abroad. It will help you maintain your health and avoid financial risks while working and living in Beijing.

When choosing an insurance, it is advisable to ask which hospitals it covers and under what requirements. Some private hospitals are labeled “high-cost” providers by health insurance companies. This means that you will have to buy a higher priced policy to cover all of your fees, or assume a copayment of a certain percentage of the bill.

Jobs in Beijing

Competition in the job market in China is intense and most applicants are highly skilled. Major industries include: mining, textiles, weaponry, chemicals, consumer products, telecommunications equipment, satellites, and transportation. Most in demand are workers with IT skills and experience and related technical qualifications. Some of the main international companies in China are: Nestlé, Goggle, Shell, IBM, HSBC, Microsoft, Airbus, Clifford Chance, Procter & Gamble. For companies of this size, it can be applied to positions online.

The main advantage of foreigners in the country is their level of English but you will also need to have relevant work experience. Many employers in China value paid work experience over volunteer experience. It is often important to have attended a well-known and “reputable” university. Having relevant work experience or excellent Chinese (or preferably both) would be ideal. Skills sought include languages, teamwork, communication skills, leadership, and learning ability.

It is common to spend 3 months looking for work. You can take the time to improve your Mandarin and make connections, as connections are essential in China. Many start working as English teachers and then look for a job within their field of work.
