If you, like many Beijing families, happen to spend a weekend right outside the city in the south, the best place for afternoon tea is probably at the Four Points by Sheraton Langfang in Hebei province. The afternoon set is modestly priced at 88 yuan ($14) for two persons, and is available Monday through Sunday at Guan lobby lounge from 2-4 pm. Call 0216-592-6666 ext 6866 to learn more.
