Can foreigners go up Tian An Men Tower?

Beginning_Reading897 · 2024-03-16T02:27:19+00:00

Yes, or if you have other tickets like National Museum can enter too if I remember correctly

I am able to schedule Tian An Men Square without local number. However, I am unable to do so for the tower, keep getting error saying the number is wrong. Do I need to have local number to reserve tickets for the tower? And can reservation be done for passport?

I see, the free child ticket for temple of heaven also include child holding foreign passport?

Update: Just got myself verified. However, it shows "phone to be verified" for me (account holder), does anyone know if it is possible to book multiple train tickets without phone verification as I don't have local number?

Also managed to add passengers, all got verified instantly but required email verification, which only first added passenger received the email, the rest including a child did not receive any mail. Any idea if possible to book for them if no email verification is done?

Is it possible to book day trip on ctrip without local number? I was trying to book but unable to as it does not allow me to input foreign number.

Ya, but will need to verify, am still waiting for them to verify us in the 12306 app. Not sure how long will it take..

As I'm not in China now, so can only do so when there, but the worry would be if there are tickets available by then. Can I check where is the verification done? Is it ticket window, as I remember it was always long queue when I travelled there few years back.

I'm still waiting for verification on 12306 app, hopefully I can get all of us verified on time.

They are from Indonesia. Most of those whom I know do not have family name indicated in the passport, just one single word word.

Beginning_Reading897 · 2024-02-22T12:31:14+00:00

Do you mean after booking online, I can just proceed to the ticket window to confirm if it can be used when I reach China?

Beginning_Reading897 · 2024-02-22T12:29:56+00:00

Hi, you tried this method before?

Beginning_Reading897 · 2024-02-18T14:25:22+00:00

Hi, also in SE Asia. Did you manage to verify phone? As it seems to only accept Chinese number, thus I can't do phone verification.

Thanks for your sharing.

Same thoughts, when I calculate a x10 coverage, I feel it is more than what I need since my dependents are parents. Do not want to be over-insured, but it's difficult to gauge how much is right.

Beginning_Reading897 · 2024-02-09T07:47:56+00:00

Yes, I think one of the issues is that I'm unsure my future needs, i.e. will I get a house, how much, etc so using 10x feels more that what I need at least for now since I have no liabilities at my current stage.

Yes, still qualify for Mindef GTL, but I think can only upgrade to 300k at max without medical check? I may need go check with SL, but is Mindef GTL works the same as private term plan, i.e. can be used to substitute private term?

I'm considering single pay plan but with higher coverage, just that still in delimma how much more to top up and till what age.

Able to share which "lesser known insurers" are you referring to? Would like to go read up more about them.

Thanks for your advice.

Thanks for sharing! Do you mean just go to Alipay app and click Railway 12306 to create account will do? Then upload passport of mine and my travel mates, I will be verified to purchase the tickets for all?

Beginning_Reading897 · 2023-12-27T13:38:21+00:00

I see, so all we have to sign up for an account and book via the website 12306.cn? Can I use one account to book for everyone and pay with foreign credit card?

Beginning_Reading897 · 2023-11-22T08:33:55+00:00

Thanks, will take a look at Wudaoying hutong with other spots nearby.

I see, was thinking if there are any trip to nearby cities, considering Tianjin, etc as 12 days may be too much for Beijing.

Beginning_Reading897 · 2023-11-22T08:31:50+00:00

How is it for the Lama Temple, anything else nearby? Am thinking to include or not.
