The Golden Week has arrived, and to keep you busy from Oct 1 to Oct 7, we’ve compiled daily lists of some of the most interesting events to be found around the capital for the holiday.

Temples and Cafés in Xicheng

Xicheng isn’t a place you’d normally think of going to, but it’s got a great number of temples that are worth checking out, including the Five Pagodas Temple near the Beijing Zoo, Baita Temple, and the Temple of Ancient Monarchs. Read more about the latter two and more to be found in the area in this article, and grab a coffee before or after your stroll at one of these shops.
