Hi does 916 operate in December? If not how would one get to Mutianyu? Thanks

Elsie, you really needn't worry so much. Bus no. 916 is still available in December.

Its open! Dont take anything but the 916. Watch for scammers at DongZhimen!

Hi Fred, I haven't been there yet (I'll go to BJ next week). But it seems normal that there was no 'h' buses at the final stop of 916 as the 'h' routes don't start from there. It seems like "the shady guys" were right (from what I can see on Baidu map) you need to hop off after the first roundabout when entering the city, cross the road and you would find the 'h' routes up to MTY there... If anyone could confirm, that'd be great.

Note: From my experience, what a Westerner interpret as loud and disrespectful injunctions is (sometimes) coming from a Chinese person with the best intentions.
