Xiaoyu Mao provides the logistical backbone for our North China bureau. While heritage sites are critical, the ability to move between them is what defines a successful trip. Xiaoyu’s primary task is to audit the "Connectivity Information" in our articles. He verifies the latest high-speed rail schedules between Beijing, Tianjin, and Shijiazhuang, ensuring that the "Official Booking" links for China Railway (12306) are correctly presented and that the instructions for "Passport-only" boarding are up-to-date.
