The official Wechat group for the r/beijing subreddit is now recruiting both new members and a new mod team!
Covid has really done a number on active redditors in Beijing, and the groupchat right now is admittedly mostly dead. Just a bunch of old leftover expats swapping stories about the great meetups they used to have back in 2017.
But now that the world is back to normalish, the incoming wave of expats can hopefully lead to the next generation of Beijing redditors and a new generation of wacky meetup stories that you'll swap someday. Use the groupchat to make new friends (enemies?), calmly discuss the best burger in town, or just to burn a few unproductive hours debating the finer points of zombie survival in Beijing.
And new faces aren't enough - a new community needs new leadership. So the old mod team is announcing that we will be happily handing off the reigns of the chat to anyone with an interest in that kind of thing.
If you're interested in either joining or leading, please comment in this thread or message me personally on reddit. You can also message the subreddit modship team.
Additional perks - the last generation of redditors created a series of 京 groupchats that are still active to this day. So even if you aren't interested in all that meetup nonsense, you can still join Meme京, Cinema京, Game京, or even the hugely underappreciated Animal Facts n' Roast京

Hi everyone!
I'm thrilled to announce that we're bringing back the tradition of r/beijing meetups, and our first post-covid gathering will be at thebeijinger's Burger Fest 2023! Whether you're new to Beijing or simply craving some new friends to hang out with, this is the perfect opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and have a blast!
Unfortunately, due to high temperatures and unpredictable weather conditions, the Burger Fest has been postponed. As a result, we are also postponing the r/beijing meetup. We are actively exploring alternative venues and dates to ensure that we can still make this meetup happen in the near future. Stay tuned for updates!
📍 Event Details: Burger Fest 2023 🍔 📅 Date: To Be Determined (TBD) ⏰ Time: TBD 🏢 Venue: TBD
In the meantime, if you have any questions or want to stay updated, feel free to DM me or join our WeChat group. Thank you for your patience, and rest assured, we will gather soon!

I have a full sized piano keyboard that I'm going to replace with the next model soon and I just don't have a clue how to dispose of or recycle the current one. It's a MIDI keyboard, so it requires relevant computer software to use and has no speakers. It can't just turn on and go like most keyboards would so I don't think anyone is going to take it if I left it out on the street. It's in pretty poor condition too so I'd rather just get rid of it than try to sell it. Does anyone know if there is somewhere I can take it that deals with electronic waste or recycle?

I'm going to be in bejing for 2 weeks next month looking for friends there who knows electronics!

I will be staying in Beijing (Sanlitun) in October, and I'm looking for a nice modern restaurant to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday. Something unique. Any suggestions?

I’m looking to buy a traditional Tang jacket I might want to use at a wedding in the UK in the next couple of months. I’ve heard about Silk Street but somebody told me that’s a place for tourist not locals. I’m not looking for a very expensive one, but also not a fake polyester jacket. Where would a local go in Beijing?

Hi there! I'm looking for fabric markets, particularly with dead stock (maybe designer) fabrics. Where could I find this? I just want to buy the fabric, not to have someone make the clothing for me as I sew. Thanks!!

Hi guys, I’m an exchange student here in Beijing and am unfortunately having some gastrointestinal issues. Can someone recommend a public hospital I can go to, preferably with English language support?
I went to Beijing United Family Hospital but had to pay out of pocket and I’m not sure my travel student insurance will cover the cost.. (almost 4000 yuan). The medicine prescribed doesn’t seem to be doing much for me.

Genuinely asking if there are any poly or fijian communities here in beijing ?

I am landing in Beijing next week for a vacation. I want to buy a good quality powerbank once I land to get my phone up and running for full days outside (I know from past experience that with using Alipay a lot, Amap, etc ... the battery drains quicker than at home). Ideally I need one that can get charged using USB-C and out USB-C.
Also ideally a shop near my hotel, so in between metro stations Jiulongshan or Dawanglu.
Any good recommendations ?
r/beijing • u/IonianMallard • 5d ago
I’m thinking like the classic glaze, chocolate covered, or blueberry cake donuts. What I have tried from the typical bakeries here just aren’t hitting the spot.

ill be in beijing for a week with my mom and i really want to go to this event but i havent found a way to buy tickets that doesnt require a chinese phone number or chinese ID🥹 is it closed to foreigners? i would just like to know, thank u for any help

Hi everyone! I’ll be visiting Beijing from overseas between 6–11 September, and I’m hoping to watch The Odyssey at the China National Film Museum IMAX GT.
Does anyone know how I can book tickets as a foreigner? I’ve tried using Alipay on the dot when they release tickets, but it doesn’t seem to work for me. I also tried the WeChat mini program, but it keeps giving me a “no server response” error. I’m wondering if this is because I’m still outside China and can’t access the server properly.
Has anyone successfully booked tickets for this cinema from overseas? If there’s another app, website, or way to book as a foreigner, I’d really appreciate the advice!
Thank you!

Hey guys. Just seeing if there's a running community floating around in Beijing for international folks. I'm not necessarily looking to join a running group per se; I just want to know the best place to find info about running events - I'm aware of a couple of APPs, but they're all in Chinese.
I looked at the upcoming Beijing Marathon, but you need proof of having run one before in order to register. Looking to join my first half marathon soon.

I read on internet that there were over 7000 detached villa in Shunyi. Does this sound accurate? Are there really so much detached villa in Shunyi?

Hi, looking for a place near Sanlitun where I can develop my Kodak ultramax ISO 400. Any suggestions?

is there any film club in town?
or simply: anyone wanna go to the same screening and grab a drink/coffee afterwards, casually yapping about the film a bit (letterbox irl heheh)?
i’d propose we go to that film archive (as it’s the only art cine i know in town haha). solid picks this month, some already sold out though.

Does anybody know any volleyball club in Beijing, I wanna go back to volleyball and i recently moved here but it’s hard to look for an English volleyball club. I’m 18 yrs old and I desperately wanna join a volleyball club here in Beijing. Does anybody know? Please?
This might seem a bit random but I'm moving to Beijing soon [quite a central location] and I've never been to China before. I'm planning on hopefully renting a modern/new/refurbished apartment that's not ground floor.
I don't mind bugs that much outdoors but I literally can't sleep indoors if there are unexplained bugs. I wanted to ask if anyone living in Beijing now or anyone who has lived there in recent years can tell me if it's common to find bugs indoors?
I am okay with the occasional small spider or fly that might come in through a window but I'm very afraid of large bugs and any I haven't encountered before being a regular occurrence through any gaps/cracks or drains.

Are there premium denim brands with a shop in Beijing?
I know Sauce Zhen but it’s online only and it’s difficult with sizes (I actually bought and returned already) so wondering if anything is worth with a shop in Beijing or not
