通州区梨园路 (Liyuan Road, Tongzhou District), Beijing, China
Participants
Plans
Crox' last expedition in China was near 苹果园 (Píngguǒyuán, apple garden), near the Western end of Line 1 of the Beijing Subway. This one is in 梨园 (Líyuán, pear garden), near the Eastern end of the same line (well, more precisely, near the Eastern end of the Batong line, which is like an above ground extension of Line 1)... So the plan is to take the subway there and see how it looks like.
Today's geohashing equipment: GPS with OSM-based map (Google is not that useful in China), camera and Yikatong.
Expedition
Thanks to the Beijing Subway network we got as close as a few hundred meters from the hash for a mere CNY 2 per person, which is about 30 cents in CHF or USD (there is flat fee for unlimited travel on the different lines, apart from the airport one - we travelled about 40 km to get there).
From there we walked to the spot, found it, took a few pictures and went back to theSubway which led us to Guomao for the next planned activities of the day.
