$50 Car Rental Yansha

There's lots on offer in Yansha, but venture farther afield and you'll find more sightseeing magic. Grab a set of wheels and you can wander around the greater area at your own speed. Add these awesome places to your list:

• Chengde is 110 miles from Yansha. Well-known attractions like Bishu Shanzhuang should be at the top of your list while you're in town.
• Situated 35 miles away, Fangshan is also popular with travelers. Make sure you experience Peking Man at Zhoukoudian while you're here. It's one of the reasons people love staying a while in this city.
• Get into the great outdoors and appreciate the serenity at Beidaihe Beach. It's about 160 miles from Yansha.

If you don't have a driver's license issued in China, then it's likely you'll need to acquire an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence to be allowed to rent a car. Also consider that if you do need an IDP, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your current license your passport and other forms of ID as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental matches the name on your license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

• Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in most places to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it might still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of vehicles you can rent.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the rules and regulations before sliding behind the wheel. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive onto ferries or on certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car.
