Hello Connel,

Welcome to Beijing and hope you'll enjoy your stay,

Beijing is a nice and safe city, people are nice and friendly, and of course like any other big cities, it has its advantages and disadvantages........

One of the most important thing is the safety, you will feel very safe and secure on the streets of Beijing......

Enjoy the city
Cheers

Hello Harmonie, hello Dikran,

Hello Connel and welcome to Beijing!

Being a newbie to Beijing as well I can tell you its a culture change, but with the right attitude its an amazing place. I am sure you will enjoy your time here.  How long will you be in Beijing and/or China?

If your looking for a city-travel friend, I'd be happy to pound the sidewalks with you.  Also, I hear there is a walk about group on this website, who meet up on the weekends. So, keep an eye out for that.

Safe travels and best of luck!

@ JeanMichelle did you mean this https://www.expat.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=89762 

If yes, it is not every weekend but once a month. Next trip this Saturday 23 July. Advance registrations is essential.

Hi Connel,

I too have recently moved to BJ, I have been in China overall for 2 years & was previously based in Shanghai. I'm currently in the Uk at the moment, but will be returning to BJ at the end of Aug, so if you would like to chat message me back

Best Wishes,

Hi,

I am new to Beijing too. I arrived yesterday and am based in the Chaoyang district. I have been a little intimidated to explore the city alone, so would love to meet you so we could maybe sightsee together?

Look forward to hearing from you.
