May 2000 Issue

coverStep outside, walk to a park and take a big gulp of fresh air. Whatever tickles your fancy in the season of youth and of rebirth, we have a suggestion. Just look out for the logo: spring fancy.

With the new season, new people, new ideas and a new style for this magazine. We hope you like it and as always, welcome your suggestions.

As if that’s not enough, “Meet in Beijing 2000" offers entertainment every single day of May. Meanwhile, 70 international photographers will be here in town to capture the best of it. We’ll take a look at their work next month.

For our Chinese readers, we created a special 10-page Chinese stories for you. Check out this month’s Dining Guide and spring outing suggestions on page 59-70.

So do what we say this month: make like an emperor.
