Winter is almost gone in Beijing China!

Still, cold winds are blowing.

Still, temperature goes below zero at night.

one snowy day (yes we only had one so far)
night decorations for Christmas in the heart of the city

Grab a coat and let’s walk together in Beijing where you think pollution rules but actually the sun is the only king in this amazing historical kingdom.
