 Expat
Tips |
|
| |
| Getting from the airport into town is
a pain sometimes because the taxi drivers can be rude
and often ask for extra tips and money. So instead,
I take a shuttle bus that is very convenient and comfortable
and safe. It lets me off at the International Hotel
across from Henderson Center on Changan Avenue and costs
about 30-40RMB. You can find it outside the international
terminal at the airport and the buses are blue and white.
