Description

For serious stargazing in Beijing, head to the Beijing Planetarium. Shows vary monthly and English is seldom used. If your Chinese is up to scratch, then you may learn a thing or two from your visit. If you are still at a beginner's level, sit back and enjoy one of the few clear night skies you are likely to see in smoggy Beijing during your visit.
