Beijing Beijing - Post offices, Postcard shops and Philatelic Centers?
Posted: Sun July 20, 2008 09:43 AM UTC
Anyone been to an "easy to reach" post office in Beijing near Olympic venues, major tourist sites and underground train stations?

Any directions will be appreciated.

LOL, I will be trying to send postcards and get special olympic games postmarks. Also if you know which place has a great selection of postcards to buy as well to buy postage stamps.

Just to update. I found two major post offices, China Post, one between Xitan and National Theatre near Tian An Men West and the other one at East District which is not easy to find.

There is also a newly open philatelic center at Qianmen Dajie (Old Street) which just opened a few days ago. Also I went to Ma Dian YuBi (Stamp & Coin) Market near Ma Dian Jiao and An Hua Jiao.

Bought many postcards and some stamps and quite happy.
