Kids Club Hike at Immortal Valley


Sometimes, there’s nothing better to start the weekend than with an invigorating hike and this weekend, Beijing Hikers are organizing another of their Kids Clubs hikes to Immortal Valley. On this hike, you’ll pass through cliffs, waterfalls, boulders, trees, and pools of water on the way to the ‘Big Buddha’ carved into the cliff. Hikers will also see the Miyun Reservoir and admire the long views of the Miyun Great Wall. This is a perfect outing opportunity for kids 6 years and older to enjoy some family time in nature. Younger children may need to be carried for parts of the hike, especially if you aim to go up towards the ‘Big Buddha’. RMB 380 for adults, RMB 160 for kids 3-5 years old, RMB 200 for kids 6-12 years old. 8am-4.30pm.

Chinese Dumpling Making Class with Sue Zhou


After the success of her hand-pulled noodle-making class in the first Bespoke Beijing Speaker Series, Sue Zhou is back to teach you how to make Chinese dumplings. Turn yourself into an expert dumpling chef with just an online Zoom meeting, and learn from the comfort of your own home. And if you’re feeling a bit intimidated by the idea of making your own jiaozi, Bespoke is so confident in the class that they think you might even be able to open your own dumpling restaurant after the session! RMB 80. 8pm-10pm. Online.

Join Beijing Hikers once again, this time for a two-day trip to Yu County in Hebei Province!

This is a fun, educational excursion perfect for adults and children ages 8 and above. RMB 1800 for adults, RMB 1680 for 8-12 years old kids. Aug 4-5 from 7.30am.
