Treat your feet

You've admired the view from the Great Wall, been lost and found in the hutong and maybe even ridden a Beijing bicycle and now ... you're exhausted.

It's not so much a shortness of breath or a headache. It's your tootsies! They're overworked, underpaid and feeling decidedly under-appreciated. They're in dire need of TLC or they're walking off the job.

Luckily, help is close at hand. Wherever you are in Beijing, you won't be too far from a helping hand - it is estimated there are more than 20,000 massage parlors in the city.
