I'm from Singapore and planning to visit the Window of the World on Feb 21 (Sun) from Hong Kong.
Since it is window, what is the best time to visit the WOW? Can we use the octopus on the Luobao line? Do Singaporean needs visa to Shenzhen since we do not need visa to Hong Kong.

I suggest you visit the park in the afternoon. After the sightseeing, you may be able to catch the show at 19:00.

Yes, there is a Cross-border Hu Tong Xing. The card carries the functions of Octopus and SZTong, and can be used at all designated transport and retail service providers in both areas, so it can be used on Luobao Line.

Besides, you are exempt from visa for mainland China for 15 days, so no visa is needed to WOW. Don't worry!

Is there a time limit on what time guests can check in at the hotel?
I will be in Beijing on the 17 April 2014 when my Shandong province tour finishes. I want to do a bit of exploring around Beijing for a few days and is looking at staying at the hutong Hou Hai area. I am not sure what time I will be arriving back in Beijing from Jinan, probably in the evening.

Dear Song,

Most hotels require their guests to check in before 18:00. If you can't come back before 18:00, you may call your hotel and ask them to keep the room for you. Some hotels do it for free while some others ask their guests to provide their credit cards for guarantee.
