Beijing Encounter 1ed -anglais-

Speed up to the minute with contemporary art at Factory 798 and a skyline that rockets to the future, or slow down to the past watching open-air mah jong and wandering the Ming Tombs - the Beijing Encounter guide gives you twice the city in half the time.

This pared-down number is ideal for quick trips - it's less accommodation, more neighbourhood highlights and the best local knowledge.
