- The most important date in the calendar is Chinese New Year which takes place between January and February. More colourful than you can imagine, you can expect street processions, elaborate puppet dragons, live music, and incredible firework displays.
- Sports fans will appreciate a visit to the Beijing Olympic Stadium which hosted the 2008 Summer Olympics. Visit in winter, and you'll find it transformed into an indoor ski-slope.
