By Public Bus
Besides bicycles, public buses are the cheapest way to get around Beijing. The trick is to find the right line to get where you want to go often you have to change buses several times, which is time-consuming and confusing. The public bus system in Beijing is very good. In that you can get almost anywhere by bus. But the downside is that they are really, really crowded and uncomfortable, also, watch your wallet when you get on the bus. Pickpockets frequent bus stops and get your stuff just as you are getting on.
By Subway
Beijing is the first city in
China to have a subway. Although often crowded, the subway is often the fastest way to get around the center city area. Right now there are 10 subway lines, and more subway lines are being built. For international tourists visiting Beijing, some basic knowledge of the main subway lines, like Line 1, Line 2, Line 4 and Line 5, is quite helpful. These four subway lines take you to almost all the major attractions in Beijing. The subway stations are clean and have English signs directing tourists to the exits near places that you are likely trying to find.
The only main problem with transportation is traffic congestion which occurs during rush hour. So for travelling around Beijing city we advise that you do not travel during rush hour periods.
