Recently, two night traveling bus lines opened in Beijing. The bus lines connect most prosperous blocks in Beijing, serving visitors the most charming night view. The East Line passes through Chang’an Avenue, Sanlitun, Guijie and Shichahai Lake while the West Line goes through CCTV Tower, Beijing Exhibition Centre, Ping’an Avenue and Chang’an West Avenue. In addition, the West Line also offers tourism products. The whole journey takes about 3 hours. In order to avoid the afternoon rush hour, the departure time of the bus is set later and will adjust in different seasons for convenience.  More warm services will be launched in the future according to tourists’ demands.

The bus boasts vintage appearance and advanced dynamical system. The bus looks like the cable car called Dangdangche in Chinese that used to be the first generation of public transportation in Beijing. Many Beijing locals said the bus recalled their memory of the old Beijing.
