ginglee Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Thought Id take advantage of a cheap flight to Thailand via Beijing next month .I understand that a 72 hour visa is available....So looking for some advice on where to stay & what to do. The obvious places would be the forbidden city & the great wall. Any information of anyone who has been there would be greatly appreciated...thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impulse Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 If you're referring to the 72 hour transit visa on arrival, check the details before buying your ticket. In the past, a round trip ticket hasn't been considered "transit". It has to be on your way from one place to another, with a stop in Beijing- not BKK-PEK-BKK. That may have changed, but I'd check to make sure you don't waste the ticket. They'll gladly sell it to you then refuse boarding and that cheap ticket doesn't look so cheap. If you do go, the Great Wall and Forbidden City and Summer Palace will take up the 48 hours nicely. Well worth the trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
