- The 4 main long-distance bus stations in Beijing are situated on the perimeter of the city in the direction of their destination.
- Dongzhimen, Dongzhimen Xiejie, serves the North-East and cities such as Chengde
- Haihutin, Nanyuan Lu, serves the South
- Beijiao (also known as Deshengmen) is for the North
- Majuan, Guangqumenwai Dajie, serves the East.
Buses to Tianjin depart from Zhaogongku, near the intersection of Nansanhuan Donglu and Puhuangyu Lu.
Most Chinese prefer the (night)train because the journey will take less time and is more comfortable.
The traffic, an overload of trucks and the damaged roads makes the travel time by bus longer.
