CBC 1.17 | Bówùguǎn jǐ diǎn kāimén? – Tourist information in Chinese

​In this episode of Coffee Break Chinese you’ll learn to ask questions in the tourist information office or at your hotel. We take the time topic further by looking at more complex times like “half past” and “quarter to”, and we also cover opening and closing times. By the end of this lesson you’ll be able to ask questions like “what can you do here?” and say what you’d like to visit, and you’ll understand the Mandarin responses you may hear in reply. This is the perfect lesson to study before a trip to China!
