[quote=RMAYEKAR ,3175]You can buy anything you want in China and a coat is no exception. You can go for a very inexpensive North Face knockoff from the Silk Market in Beijing. Those will last you through the winter and more and are very warm. An exceptional deal. I would say these winter coats are about $15 US...but don't quote me on that. Considering that a "real" Northface jacket could run you $300 US and upwards, this is not a shabby deal at all. If you want something fancier then just go to a more upscale department store. You will be paying just as much or more as you would pay for a coat back home if you go this route. We went up high altitudes in the winter in our $15 coats and had no problems.And to answer your last question... China is still SOOOOOO beautiful in the winter. The air is brisk and Beijing just feels so alive. There is little to no snow which means it is bitterly cold and dry but it's still lovely. Best of all... you can spend your nights over a steaming pot of HOT POT!!! You are so lucky! Good luck and let me know if you have any other questions![/quote]
