How to use 门票
门票 is mainly used for admission to places and events, such as parks, museums, concerts, and sports games. It is counted with 张 (zhāng). Example: 这个公园的门票多少钱？(Zhège gōngyuán de ménpiào duōshao qián?) How much is the ticket for this park?
门 (mén) looks like a doorway, and 票 (piào) means ticket. A 门票 is the ticket that gets you through the door of a museum, park, or show.
Common mistake: Learners often use 门票 for transport tickets, but bus or train tickets are 车票 (chēpiào) and plane tickets are 机票 (jīpiào). Also keep 票 (piào) in the fourth tone. Do not say it with a flat first tone.
