sa 22 na alis namin to Beijing. 5 days kami. saan kaya mas okay kumuha ng tour for Great Wall? tsaka ano pang okay puntahan? wag lang mga fake branded stuff shopping. thanks.

[vhanya]

malayo ba talaga yung great wall sa beijing city center?

[arielle]

[speedbytes]

Approx. 1 hour from downtown Beijing.

[vhanya]

Mga sis, talaga bang half day lang ang embassy ng China?
Ako madami nang stamps sa passport puro Bangkok, Hongkong, Singapore and Malaysia oh and Macau.  Ano kaya requirements needed for my 9 year old daughter that I'll be bringing with me.  We have 9 days for Hongkong, and Shenzhen, san pa kami pwede pumunta?  I haven't looked at a China map :-)

[marief2rnurse]

what are the exact places that you want to visit in Beijing and Shanghai? 10-12 days in beijing and shanghai only can be too much. Better give us an idea on the places that you want to visit.

Re: Shopping, sa experience ko, masmahal sa China if mga branded compare dito sa pinas. I'm not sure lang sa mga China brands. Sikat sila sa mga fake branded stuff din (sa beijing meron). Sa shanghai, may Outlet Store. Branded talaga, cheaper (e.g. the bra I bought sa CK doon, mga P1000 lang each. sa CK dito sa pinas, mga P1300++ or more ata) I'm not sure lang if last season yun mga stuff sa Outlet Stores. Sa shenzhen, I can't comment kasi I never went shopping there before. Pero based sa mga friends ko who've been to shenzhen, usually they go there to buy wholesale stuff and sell them back again here in Pinas.

sis pano iuwi mga pinamili if maover ka sa baggage limit?
sa hongkong na ba ipadoor to door or meron din po ba sa shenzhen?  thanks

[arielle]

tagal ko ng nakapunta sa hongkong, kailangan na rin ba ng visa pag pumunta?

[plum_girl]

thinking of visiting shanghai in May. Is it a good time to go there?

[arielle]

^yup di na masyado malamig. just don't go there during the labor holidays, dami tao sa mga tourist destinations.

Mahaba lang pila sa visa, be there early, then till 11am lang sila, pero tinatapos naman ata nila yung mga tao sa loob or pa assist ka sa travel agency.

[Heatherette]

My family and I are planning to go this year to Beijing. Madali kaya mag-DIY tour dun or mas maganda if we have a tour guide?

[lesliepw]

Sa mga first timer kukuha ng visa to china mejo madami na requirements..
but sa mga me tatak na easy na lang kumuha ng visa ngayon
its my 2nd time to go there and need lang nila passport,copy of roundtrip ticket,1pc 2x2 white background picture yun lang.4days lang processing 1400php.
 sabi sa kin up to 3 entries for 3 mos.but when i get my passport single entry lang pala!
maganda din ipakuha na [textspeak!] sa travel agency para hassle free.mejo mahaba pila ngayon and half day nga lang,before 11am close na sila pero until 3pm sila andun.

takenote:fillup the application form completely-even the exact location/address in china-
