Niahao! (Hello) I can hardly believe it’s been only seven months since my maiden trip to China. In the spring, Beijing was abuzz with Olympic
fever– now that the party is over it seems the city is basking in the
after glow. This uncharacterically clear sunny weather is perfect for
sightseeing and walking about.
Hotel Recommendation
I’ve return to the Beijing Friendship Hotel a spectacular and incredibly affordable 5-star hotel. Traditional Chinese architecture combined with upscale amenties, well appointed suites and convienent location garners high marks in my book. The daily rate for a deluxe suite is $190, tax included!
