Visitor to China / Beijing

Post by KTCAOP
Hello -

I will be planning to be visiting China and Wazing around mostly the Beijing area.

As a very timid foreigner, any tips, suggestions, or otherwise that I should know? Pretty much completely clueless here >_<.

Thank you!

i suggest you to use Baidu map or Gaode map, search result for places in waze is not reliable, always leaded me to wrong place.

and google map app is blocked as well.

Translation ;)
You cannot use Google map as it is blocked by the government.
Try to use ditu.qq.com

You still can use Waze app but not the Waze map editor. I do not know how good the map has been done in Beijing. Let the locals to comment ;)

It is around £6/MB if you use UK network. Don't know how much it costs if you use US network.

Is this mean the Waze drive record will not show up in the drive tab ?
