Summer in Beijing is Too Much Fun (北京的夏天是太有意思了) Posted by on Aug 31, 2010 in Culture, Uncategorized

With the summer winding down, I felt the urge to share some more of the many great summer activities available in and around Beijing for my last post of August.  For this video, follow me through some of Beijing’s local parks, a water park, and head out to the Yellow Sea to enjoy the warm weather while it lasts.
