Get around Qinhuangdao
Qinhuangdao is a relatively small city by China standards. However, due to its location on the water the city tends to sprawl in a linear fashion along the coast from Shanhaiguan to Beidaihe, thus making buses and taxis necessary means for getting around. Taxis are inexpensive and abundant, thus making them the preferred means of transport for travelers. Be sure you can confidently communicate where you want to go before you get into a cab as none of the drivers in Qinhuangdao can speak English, and many of them can not read Chinese. The best approach is to have a valid phone number for where you are going, or a phone number for a contact who can communicate with the driver in Chinese should there be a problem.
Buses are also a good option for getting around the city. City maps, which contain bus routes on them, can be obtained from kiosks near to the central bus and train stations. Buses cost between 1 and 2 yuan for a single ticket ride. However, the low cost means that buses are always overcrowded, and occasional pick pockets make it a place to protect your personal belongings.
