Beijing is one of the largest cities in the world, and it is impossible to see everything in 72 hours. Where do you go first? What do you want to see and do the most?

Wonderful plan!
Traveling to China for a wedding later this year. Will use the tips in this book while in Beijing. Didn't know there are so many access points to the Great Wall.

Excellent!
Gives good information on the main sites, is not verbose, map is decent but it does not cover as much of the city as you would like - it only covers the city core, and everything beyond it is not in it. Get this book, and you are all set.

Fantastic plan!
I love looking through travel audiobooks and deciding where to go on vacations. This audiobook has some gorgeous information which makes it a lot of fun going through it. There are several possible itineraries that hit several of the top destinations. In addition to the details about where to visit, there are also a lot of pertinent travel tips, specifically for Beijing.

In this book you will find everything including tourist sites and food, enough information to plan and use your free time efficiently, lots of tips to make your visit easier and more enjoyable, and just enough information about lodging and dining establishments to give you an idea of what's available if you need it. It's well-organized and -illustrated and will help with planning as well as during a trip.

Helpful
The info is helpful. I just wish it had a little more history behind the memorials. I guess that's what you get if you buy the larger, fatter travel books. Overall it was a good book.

Great reference!
I have a few bucket list destinations we are trying to schedule in the next few years and Beijing is high on the list. This book did a good job of getting our dreams going. I think it will become a good reference.

Great for the small tour
If you're planning a touristic trip to Beijing, you are most likely going on a preplanned tour. Beijing in 72 Hours has what you need.

Awesome for traveling in Beijing
40. This is a very good audiobook for an overview of traveling in Beijing – not every part of the city is covered in depth – that would be a much bigger audiobook. But the most visited parts of the city are covered. This is really good for giving ideas & planning.
