the Beijinger

It’s the end of the year and what a year it’s been. Beijing has given you a great deal over the last 12 months and in December’s the Beijinger, we give you some ideas on how you can give back to this fair city. That’s right! Find out how and where you can get yourself feeling all warm inside by doing something good for others. We’ve also got interviews with Dr. Jane Goodall and The Click Five (the latter which you can also win tickets for by answering this month’s Trivia Travails). If you’re looking to get out of Beijing, check out Explore for the lowdown on Kyoto and Warsaw. In Stage this month, we’ve got the highlights on the Sixth Beijing International Theater and Dance Festival, as well as an exclusive Q&A with Xiao Gang, director of Internet sensation Queer As Folk Beijing in Cinema. Check out our interviews with Harmonics 313 and Pet Conspiracy in Bars & Clubs and Music, plus all the festive nightlife and dining destinations to keep you occupied ‘til 2009.
