Dear Tom,
I’m glad to hear from you. I’m very happy to know that you are coming to Beijing. In spring, it’s warm and windy. In summer, it’s hot. Winter is cold and dry, but the city is very beautiful after snow. The best time to visit Beijing is in autumn. Because the weather is usually cool and sunny.
There are many places of interest in Beijing, such as Tian’anmen Square, the Summer Palace, the Palace Museum and so on. If you come to Beijing, I suggest you must climb the Great Wall, because there is an old saying that “He who doesn’t reach the Great Wall is not a true man”. It’s a good idea to bring a camera because you’ll probably want to take a lot of pictures. Also, remember to buy a map, because you might get lost in the city. Of course, I can be your guide if you like. I hope this information is useful.
Yours,
Li Ming
