Hi, If I fly from Seoul to Beijing and from Beijing to Hong Kong and Hong Kong to Manila, can I visit Beijing for 72 hours? Or am I not allowed to since Hong Kong is considered part of China? Thank you.

Yes, you can visit Beijing and allowed 72 hours stay if you have a confirmed ticket to HK. HK is considered the third region in this regards.

How about ICN-PVG-TPE-MNL? (Seoul - Beijing - Taipei - Manila) Is Taipei also considered a third region? Thank you.
