I will be staying with my wife at the following address Financial Street, XiCheng District Beijing Post code: 100140 IS the above address near Beijing Downtown? How far is BCLU from the above address? What is the mode of transport and how long does it take to get to BLCU? Pls also let me know the ease/frequency of busess/subways if any? Thanks a lot for the help Edited December 1, 2008 at 03:01 AM by roddy Quote
nithya.anupindi Posted November 29, 2008 at 04:15 AM Author Report Posted November 29, 2008 at 04:15 AM Hi Looks like i am answering the question myself. An hour of search on the Internet. The Fuxingmen Subway station is a 3-4 minutes walk from the address mentioned. Get on to Subway Line 2 and get down at Xizhimen and take Line 13 to Wudaokou. BLCU is very close to Wudaokou. The frequency of the Subways is pretty good and operates from 5AM to 11PM. I am yet to figure out how to get from Wudaokou to BLCU. Quote
roddy Posted November 29, 2008 at 04:22 AM Report Posted November 29, 2008 at 04:22 AM 10 minute walk, maybe less. Another option would be a bus - you might be able to find one that goes direct and saves you changing at Xizhimen. Would be slower though, especially in rush hour, and subway is probably the best option. Quote
randall_flagg Posted November 29, 2008 at 05:42 PM Report Posted November 29, 2008 at 05:42 PM Not sure I'd want to put my address on the internet like that... Quote
imron Posted November 30, 2008 at 02:08 AM Report Posted November 30, 2008 at 02:08 AM By subway, I'd figure maybe a 1 hour trip door-to-door. From Wudaokou subway, just head east for a couple of minutes and you'll reach the south gate of BLCU. Quote
roddy Posted November 30, 2008 at 04:18 PM Report Posted November 30, 2008 at 04:18 PM Not sure I'd want to put my address on the internet like that... It's just down the (second ring) road from me - it's either a very big hotel or a very big apartment complex, so the stalkers still have some research to do. An hour sounds about right to me, maybe a bit less. How long you have to wait for the two trains will make a bit of difference - just several minutes, but in the morning every extra minute in bed is precious . . . Quote
nithya.anupindi Posted December 1, 2008 at 01:34 AM Author Report Posted December 1, 2008 at 01:34 AM Hi roddy/Admin Thanks for the reply.Could you please remove my first post ( or the thread) which has the address from the forum? Really do not want to give any food for thought to the stalkers. I am not able to delete it myself. Thanks once again for the directions and info. Quote
roddy Posted December 1, 2008 at 03:01 AM Report Posted December 1, 2008 at 03:01 AM Removed, although I don't think you've got any stalkers from this site at least . . . Quote
