The crossing at Zabaykalsk/Manzhouli requires that you are on board a vehicle. It is possible to get on board a Chinese tour bus for around 300roubles. It is also ok to stand before the entrance to the border area and wait for a ride, however prepare to wait a long time. If you are not Chinese, Mongolian or Russian, prepare to be interrogated by the Russian border police for around 30 minutes.
