February is a transit month between winter and spring, it is still very cold outside, average high 5\u2103 and low -7\u2103 though a little bit warmer than January. It is beginning to shake off its winter cloak. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What to Wear and Pack in Beijing in February <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In February , it is still cold outside. But indoor, like in the workplaces, dormitories, hotels or transportation areas, there is heating system. So in your hotel room or any indoor places, it is all right to wear a sweater or even just a T-shirt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But once you’d like to go out for sightseeing and walk on the streets, you are basically required to wear warm clothes such as cotton coats, down jackets, leather jackets, woollen coats, hats, gloves, and fur coats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t want to pack or carry heavy warm clothes all the way from your home country, you may purchase them here in Beijing.
