Many tourist attractions and buses in China sell tickets through WeChat Official Accounts. You need to use WeChat, first follow the official account of the merchant, and find the corresponding ticket purchase entry in the menu. Locate the foreigner ticket purchase entry, fill in passport information (sometimes it's necessary to verify with a Chinese mobile number), and make payment using WeChat Pay.
Let's take Temple of Heaven (天坛公园, Beijing) as an example and guide you through the ticket purchasing process step by step.
Use the WeChat Scan function to scan the QR code for the official account.
Click follow.
Usually, after following, you will see a ticket purchase guide sent by them in the official account chat interface. You can use WeChat's translation feature to view this.
Find the ticket purchase entry in the menu (if you're not familiar with Chinese, using a translation tool can be helpful).
Enter the ticket purchase page, which is developed individually by each official account, so they differ, but generally speaking, you'll need to choose the type of ticket you need and fill in your identification information. Sometimes, you'll also need to enter a Chinese mobile number for verification.
You need to use WeChat Pay to complete the payment. Make sure you have added your credit card to WeChat Pay or that you have enough balance in your WeChat Pay account. If you have any questions about this part, please check this article: {WeChat Pay Guide}
