Great Wall

Visiting the Great Wall in the off-season provides a chance to beat the heat and the crowds. Also, the bulwark takes on a different feel in the colder months.

The Simatai section, in particular, offers a variety of views since it's constructed in various styles.

Simatai's wall spans the mountaintops near Beijing Wtown, a water-town resort constructed in traditional style with flagstone streets and brick buildings. It organizes special winter activities that incorporate folk customs and hot springs.

National Stadium

The major Olympic venue has evolved into a winter wonderland over the years, with carnivals that attract over 1.6 million visitors during the season. Families can enjoy skiing, and artificial snow and ice. The National Swimming Center and the National Convention Center will also host winter events.
