China Heartbeats | ​First Flakes Hit Beijing, City Gears Up!

Beijing's first proper snow of winter arrived overnight! While locals enjoy the scenic views at the Forbidden City, a blue snowstorm and orange ice warnings are in effect.

To keep the city moving, over 4,000 emergency workers and 2,600 snowploughs are on duty. Subways are running longer hours, and from 5-8 PM, car drivers can use bus lanes to ease traffic. Authorities advise taking public transport, driving carefully, and staying warm.(Photo by the interviewee)
