  2. FOOD TO READ MORE VISIT THIS LINK.http://www.chinatravel.com/facts/chinese-food/ Chinese Cooking Art In China, cooking is an art. Quite different from Western cooking whose recipes are followed strictly like laboratory instructions, Chinese cooking always allows for a creative and stylistic touch to it. Besides, great attention is paid to the aesthetic appreciation of the food. A good Chinese dish should be a great combination of taste and appearance. Food has a special meaning to the Chinese people.  The "waste not, want not" ethos means that a surprising range and variety of plants and animals, and every part of a plant or animal is used. This has given rise to a remarkable diversity in the regional cuisine, but to westerners it can be overwhelming - surprising, fantastic, delicious, horrifying or disgusting - and above all, different.

The wall flanks the northern part of Beijing with various passes and towers. The main sections include Badaling, Juyongguan, Huanghuacheng, Jiankou, Mutianyu, Gubeikou, Jinshanling, and Simatai. Of these eight sections, five are officially open to the public: Badaling, Juyongguan, Mutianyu, Jinshanling and Simatai, representing more than 100 kilometres renovated and well preserved.All the five sections of the Great Wall in Beijing have their own unique features.

  19. ACTIVITES (CONTUNED) Rent a bike If you can't beat 'em, join 'em, all three million of Beijing's bike riders. Biking through Beijing is an experience not to be missed. With special bike traffic lights and several million biking pals you're relatively safe and in good company plus Beijing is as flat as a pancake so you won't even need gears. Foreigners looking to rent a bike should come with their passport and rental shops will record your passport/identity card number and then ask for a cash deposit. Some might accept your passport/identity card as collateral but such a practice is only asking for trouble. Rents are low but deposits are high. Always inspect your bike and point out any damage before setting off so you won't be charged for damage you are not responsible for. Golf 'Green opium', as the Chinese refer to the lure of golf, is a growing phenomenon in China and years of economic growth are swelling the ranks of the middle class. The sport is gaining popularity so rapidly that Beijing fears it is displacing valuable farmland. Beijing itself boasts over 30 golf courses. Here are some of the biggest: Beijing CBD International Golf Club Address: 99 Gaobeidian Road, Chaoyang Beijing ChaoyangGolf Club Address: Shang-si Road, Tuanjiehu Xiaoqu Chaoyang, Beijing Beijing Country Golf Club
