Q: Any ideas where to take visitors who've been to Beijing before?

I have visitors coming from out of town and they've been to Beijing several times and done all the major sites and attractions. I've previously taken them through the hutongs of Houhai area/Gulou, to 798, Sanlitun and even a couple of swanky new malls. I really don't know know where to take them without doing the same as the last time.

You could take them to some of the more distant places like the Ming tombs, older parts of the Great Wall, or even fruit orchards if you are up for taking a trip out of the actual city.

If they've seen all the sites, why not encourage them to take part in some activities instead? Renting a bike and just cycling aimlessly through hutongs is always a big hit, or how about signing them up to a Chinese cooking class? Another way to impress them is to expand their culinary experiences. Take them to restaurants they've never been to. Encourage them to try cuisines from all over China. Take them to some cool bars and introduce them to the music scene here, or go to a documentary screening at Moma or Ullens. There are also so many beautiful areas a little further from Beijing. They have been to the great wall, but did they ever see the Longqing Gorge in Yanqing County? Or what about the ancient town of Cuandixia? With its narrow alleyways, ornate doorways and wide choice of farm-style guesthouses and restaurants, Cuandixia makes for an impressive and memorable trip for any out-of-towner. The only complicated part is arranging a mode of transport to get there but if you ask a Chinese friend or ask around, you'll surely figure out a way. Finally, I think a lot of people over-look the museums. Sure, they're oozing with patriotism but that's exactly what's interesting: seeing how China decides to portray its history. This list could go on and on...

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
