The Christmas tree lighting ceremony is a true Kempinski Hotel Beijing tradition. On each Advent Sunday Kempinski hotel lights up the tree while the "Little Angels" children choir sings Christmas carols.
German Christmas Stollen, Christmas cookies, mulled wine, non-alcoholic punch are served.
Celebrating Christmas in Beijing has become something of a popular tradition influenced by westernization. Those who find themselves in Beijing at Christmas will have the chance to feel Christmas in the air and join the celebrations in high spirits.
