If it’s your first time visiting Beijing Chaoyang Station

you might find yourself a little bit confused about

How to get to the station

How to buy tickets

How to get on the train

But fear not

Because today, a foreign friend

will guide us through the whole process of taking a train

on his trip to Harbin, an increasingly popular Chinese tourist destination

And have more foreigners informed of what they want to know

 

01  How to get to the station

The Beijing-Shenyang Passenger Line

begins and ends at Beijing Chaoyang Station

which means

if you’re taking the high speed rail to northeast China

chances are you’re going to be starting your journey right here

You can take a taxi to get to the station just as our friend does

or you can opt for public transportation

like buses or ride hailing services as well

But just make sure you remember that

before you leave

that you confirm what station you’re going to

because there are a lot of different train stations in Beijing
