Special: Beijing Subway

Editor's Note

Public transport fares in Beijing have been the lowest in the country since before the 2008 Olympic Games, when city authorities tried to encourage people to use public transport in order to ease traffic jams and reduce air pollution.

Recently, the Beijing municipal commission of development and reform is soliciting public opinion on whether fares for public transportation should be raised. For many Beijing residents, the 18-day (from July 3 to 20) exercise signals the end of the city's "low fare public transport system".

Commuting by subway is increasingly important to people in Beijing. It is like a kaleidoscope of interesting people, novelties......Today, our City of Beijing website will guide you to explore the underground world in this cosmopolitan city.
