English Translation

Winter in Beijing is very cold, the wind is strong, the weather is dry, and it often snows, so the temperature is very low. The days are short and the nights are long. People wear thick coats, wrap scarves, and wear gloves and hats. In the park there are people skating; children have snowball fights and make snowmen. Families like to drink hot tea or hot cocoa at home, and they also go to eat hotpot. Hot soup feels warm. On the street you can see blue sky, and you can also see white snow; the scenery is beautiful. Tourists come to take photos. They walk slowly and are careful, because the road surface is slippery. Winter in Beijing is quiet and busy. Shops have winter sales, the subway is crowded, but everyone smiles and says hello to each other. Welcome to come and experience Beijing’s winter.
