China Travel Forum

[Oliver]

Hey everyone,
At the end of Feb will travel to Beijing and stay there for some time, exact dates are not fixed yet. I've never been to China before, so I want to see as much as possible of Beijing and perhaps also visit places or regions not too far away from there.
During the first week or so I will have a hotel room somewhere in the city, but afterwards I'll need a cheap place to stay in Beijing, any suggestions anyone ?
