"Kite flying is a popular pastime in China. The Beijing International Kite Festival is held in April and has previously hosted up to 500 participants from across China, as well as a smattering of kite enthusiasts from abroad. The event is held on a weekend in the open space of Yuanbo Park, located on the quieter west side of Beijing. In addition to various kite-related workshops and displays, there is also open freewheeling kite flying — just be careful not get to lines crossed.When: April" - MATADOR_NETWORK
