Discover China: Bodacious Beijing (2001)
• January 1st, 2001 • 1h 44min
Documentary
Overview
Take a trip to the amazing Chinese capital without leaving your own home. Not content with a tourist-only view of Beijing, this documentary hangs with the locals in roadside food stalls and antique flea markets. But the big landmarks -- such as the Great Wall and the Forbidden City -- are showcased amply as well. Like any good vacation, this whirlwind of culture, history, shopping and food will leave you satisfied and reluctant to return home.
