As a cultural metropolis, Beijing is a city overflowing with theaters. You can be dazzled by the grand spectacles in some of these, such as the National Center for Performing Arts, or be inspired by the experimental plays, happening in small theaters. But if traditional Chinese culture is what you like, you should not miss the Huguang Guild Hall, or Hu Guang Hui Guan in Chinese -- one of the "four great theaters" in all of Beijing.

Easter eggs are very familiar in western countries. The colored eggs, with various patterns on them, are rather eye-catching. The craft of carving eggs is getting popular in China.

A special gift

Gremlin is an American horror film with comic overtones, directed by Joe Dante and released in 1984 by Warner Bros. The story begins with inventor Rand Peltzer trying to find a quick gift for his son Billy before returning home from a New York trip. He settles on a unique pet in a Chinatown curio shop -- a cute, furry creature known as a Mogwai. The shopkeeper warns him that several rules must be obeyed by a Mogwai owner.
