Parking Garage 2

Six levels, 4,300+ spaces, 4‑minute walk to T2

Parking Garage 2 sits directly opposite Terminal 2 at Beijing Capital (PEK), about a 4‑minute covered walk from the check‑in halls. It’s a six‑storey concrete block built for volume, handling more than 4,300 cars plus around 20 marked accessible spaces for passengers with reduced mobility. If you want short‑stay, covered parking for T2, this is the main workhorse.

Pricing runs short‑term but with a predictable cap: the first 15 minutes are free, then you pay roughly ¥6–10 per 30–60 minutes, with Trip.com listing a first‑hour rate of ¥10 for P2 and a daily maximum of ¥80. That ¥80 cap makes Garage 2 workable for overnight or 24‑hour trips, but it’s still positioned as a short‑stay facility rather than long‑term economy parking.

Access is through a tangle of 16 separate entrances and exits serving the different levels and sides of Garage 2, which helps spread queues at peak morning and evening bank times around Terminal 2. The flip side: with that many access points and six levels of rows, it’s easy to lose track of your slot if you don’t log the entry ramp and floor number as soon as you park.

Layout is standard multi‑storey: ramps between the six levels, marked walking routes toward the Terminal 2 pedestrian bridges, and signage in both Chinese and English pointing you to the departures and arrivals doors. Pay machines typically sit near the pedestrian exits and on key crosswalks, so plan 5–10 minutes for finding a machine, paying, and walking back into the terminal if you’re tight on time.

Pro tip: snap a photo of the level marker and nearest entrance number the moment you park; with 4,300+ spaces and 16 access points, that saves a long sweep of the garage when you’re landing at 23:30 and just want to drive home.
