The Chinese capital introduced the Beijing Pass, a multi-purpose card for international visitors, on Wednesday, facilitating their payment for transportation, tourist sites, and shopping centers.
With a maximum balance of 1,000 yuan (about 140.16 U.S. dollars), the Beijing Pass not only supports card payments for the Beijing Subway, suburban railways, and taxis within Beijing, but also for public transportation in over 300 cities across China, including major tourist destinations like Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Nanjing.
Moreover, international visitors can also use the card to purchase tickets for 30 popular tourist attractions in Beijing, such as the Summer Palace, the Temple of Heaven, and the Badaling section of the Great Wall.
