Geographically located in the northwest part of the North China Plain, and covering an area of 16,800square km. Beijing is the second largest city in China with a population of more than 11 million. It has a semi-humid continental climate in the warm temperate zone. With an annual average temperature of 12 degrees Centigrade and rainfall of 641 millimetre, Beijing is neither cold in winter nor very hot in summer. The best seasons in Beijing are Spring and Autumn. Beijing China is indeed an ideal place to visit all round the year.<br /> <br /> <strong>Why choose CHINACTION to visit Beijing</strong><br /> <ul> <li>We will manage your tour from the beginning to the end.</li> <li>Our tour patterns with more culture features are quite different with other travel agencies.</li> <li>Our tour will make you get to know Beijing and China and try to enjoy various aspects of Beijing.</li> <li>We arrange for reasonable and typical tour lines for you.</li> <li>We guide you to avoid unnecessary money on trip.</li> <li>We will offer many professional tour programs (esp. culture events). </li> </ul> <blockquote><strong>we are not the traditional notional travel agency, the different from them as following:</strong> <ol start="1"> <li><img align="right" src="http://www.chinaction.cn/theme/eNews/topimg/11/random.php" />Most of travel agencies always give the simple introduction after they go to a scene spot with the guests,quickly, only give the very limited time to enjoy the sightseeing,then they will take the guests to buy the keepsakes for a very long time, so it will waste too much travel time,and the guests have never plenty of time to enjoy carefully. However we absolutely reject this method,but the demand of shopping which the guest need.</li> <li>Most of travel agencies always only receive the large travel party, not be suitable for individual and small party and not be satisfied with the demands of guests. Those travel agencies only finish the schedule quickly, the guests must conform to the travel schedule,sometimes the guests are very tired. However we will give priority to every guest, having much more free and flexible, we will do my best for all needs of every guest,and offer the hand and foot services from the beginning to the end, and become your real guide of Beijing.</li> <li>Most of travel agencies offer services impossible full day, and seldom contact the guests when the schedule is over. However we can satisfy your any demands for 24 hours everyday in Beijing. Even if the program is over, we can also go on keeping contacting you, offering any information about Beijing, being the base in Beijing for you.</li> </ol></blockquote> <ol start="1"> </ol> <img align="right" src="http://www.chinaction.cn/theme/eNews/topimg/12/random.php" /><strong>Th</strong><strong>e guidance before visiting Beijing:</strong> <ul> </ul> <strong></strong> <ol start="1"> <li>Browse all content of our website and collect some Beijing, China information through contacting ChinAction (using around three days)</li> <li>Select the travel program, and please click the 'Schedule and Price' link and 'Tour Attention' link (using around three days)</li> <li>Go to your local China embassy to get the visa (using around one week)</li> <li>Buy the airplane ticket (using around three days)</li> <li>Contact us and tell us the time of arriving to Beijing and else, and be ready to act (using around three days)</li> <li>Finally, start...</li> </ol> With the guide of Chinaction about Scene Spots, Meals, Accommodation, Shopping, Bars and Nightlife, Countryside, Learning Daily Chinese Language, Traditional and Modern Culture, we trust that you will have a great time in Beijing and love Beijing much more.<br /> <br /> <strong>Welcome any organization or individual who like Beijing to join our team and become the agent of us.<br /><br /> </strong><img height="228" src="http://www.ebeijing.gov.cn/Travel/top_banner/W020080409413776029025.jpg" style="border: 0px solid #ffffff;" width="655" /><br /></p><br /><div class="text_huge">News</div><hr class="hr_line" /><br /><div style="width: 100%;" class="news_title_bg"> <a href="/en/eNews/news/chinese-see-dramatic-rise-in-quality-of-life:-economist.html">Chinese See Dramatic Rise in Quality of Life: Economist</a> </div> <div style="padding-top: 5px;" class="news_content_bg"> <span class="text_small"> 28.08.2008 - 11:19 h | in <a href="/en/eNews/news.html?cat=f2a34">China News in Aug,2008</a> | <a href="/en/eNews/news/chinese-see-dramatic-rise-in-quality-of-life:-economist.html&cmd=trackback">Trackback</a> | <a href="/en/eNews/news/chinese-see-dramatic-rise-in-quality-of-life:-economist.html#comments">0 Comments</a> </span> <br /> <br /> <div class="news_content_box"> <p><img src="http://english.cri.cn/mmsource/images/2008/08/28/4635quality450.jpg" /></p> <p>Rural people from the town of Huayan in Chongqing municipality learn computer skills in order to improve their job opportunities.</p> <p>The impact of China's economic reforms in the last three decades has been ... <a href="/en/eNews/news/chinese-see-dramatic-rise-in-quality-of-life:-economist.html">Read more »</a> </div> </div> <br /> <div class="news_seperator" style="margin-bottom: 1px;"> </div><div style="width: 100%;" class="news_title_bg"> <a href="/en/eNews/news/beijing-paralympic-flame-lit-in-temple-of-heaven.html">Beijing Paralympic flame lit in Temple of Heaven</a> </div> <div style="padding-top: 5px;" class="news_content_bg"> <span class="text_small"> 28.08.2008 - 11:09 h | in <a href="/en/eNews/news.html?cat=f2a34">China News in Aug,2008</a> | <a href="/en/eNews/news/beijing-paralympic-flame-lit-in-temple-of-heaven.html&cmd=trackback">Trackback</a> | <a href="/en/eNews/news/beijing-paralympic-flame-lit-in-temple-of-heaven.html#comments">0 Comments</a> </span> <br /> <br /> <div class="news_content_box"> <img border="0" src="http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2008-08/28/xin_5220805281118718271430.jpg" /> <p>The Paralympic torch was lit at the Beijing Paralympic flame lighting ceremony in the Temple of Heaven here on Thursday. </p> <img border="0" src="http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2008-08/28/xin_52208052811188431311131.jpg" ... <a href="/en/eNews/news/beijing-paralympic-flame-lit-in-temple-of-heaven.html">Read more »</a> </div> </div> <br /> <div class="news_seperator" style="margin-bottom: 1px;"> </div><div style="width: 100%;" class="news_title_bg"> <a href="/en/eNews/news/beijing-hosts-6.5-mln-tourists-during-olympics.html">Beijing hosts 6.5 mln tourists during Olympics</a> </div> <div style="padding-top: 5px;" class="news_content_bg"> <span class="text_small"> 28.08.2008 - 10:52 h | in <a href="/en/eNews/news.html?cat=f2a34">China News in Aug,2008</a> | <a href="/en/eNews/news/beijing-hosts-6.5-mln-tourists-during-olympics.html&cmd=trackback">Trackback</a> | <a href="/en/eNews/news/beijing-hosts-6.5-mln-tourists-during-olympics.html#comments">0 Comments</a> </span> <br /> <br /> <div class="news_content_box"> <img border="0" height="300" hspace="0" id="9279231" src="http://images.china.cn/attachement/jpg/site1007/20080827/00114320ca550a1ee1ff10.jpg" style="width: 450px;
