Although it’s still autumn, the weather is gradually getting colder, and winter is not far off. One of the most popular winter activities is skiing, and for ski enthusiasts, choosing the right ski resort is essential. In Beijing, the capital of China, there are many ski resorts that are not to be missed.
Nanshan Ski Resort
This resort is very crowded, so if you are a beginner, it is easy to bump into others or be bumped into. Be sure to watch behind you when skiing. There are many ski instructors at Nanshan, each specializing in different board types, so if you hire an instructor, be sure to ask if they specialize in snowboarding or skiing. Nanshan’s instructors are strictly managed and do not accept tips.
