Beijing is a throbbing nerve center of ring roads, highways and subways connecting local spots, railways stations and airports.

The city is enclosed by six ring roads, with nine expressways and eleven national highways. Today's Style Watch provides some tips on how to get around Beijing.

BUS

There are many public bus lines which can take you to every corner of Beijing. Taking the bus is one of the most convenient and cheapest ways to get around the city. 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 attendants can help visitors know when to get off the bus.

The public buses make stops at all of the city's major sites and commercial centers. There are some express buses which connect the major scenic spots such as the Forbidden City, the Great Wall, and the Summer Palace.
