We’ve all been there – you break out a map or map app, be it Baidu or Google or Amap, and something you’re looking for isn’t there. Maybe a business moved, maybe it’s wonky programming, or maybe a map just isn’t up to snuff based on what you need.

Well now’s the time to voice your concerns, as the Official portal of the Beijing Municipal Government is doing a survey to better improve Beijing’s English language maps – basically, they want to know what you want to see on a Beijing city map.

Based on the responses, the city hopes to provide more foreigners and foreign-invested enterprises with convenient services related to English maps of Beijing. The survey is completely anonymous, so feel free to share your thoughts according to your actual situation.

But wait, there’s something else in store: The first 200 eligible respondents to this survey will receive a special gift, a hand-painted souvenir map of a specific Beijing historic site or a special pin of Tian'anmen.
