Important Notes for Beijing:
VPN: Many Western apps (Google, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp) are blocked in China. A VPN is essential if you want to access these.
Mobile Payments: China is largely cashless. WeChat Pay and Alipay are crucial. Ensure you have them set up and linked to an international card before you arrive.
Language: Mandarin is the primary language. English proficiency varies. Have a translation app ready.
Booking: For popular attractions (Forbidden City, Great Wall tours), book tickets online well in advance, especially during peak season.
