Fragrant Hills attract tourists with German beer

The first German Fresh Beer Garden Festival opened at Villa Castanea at the foot of the Fragrant Hills in Beijing on August 26. The festival hopes to attract visitors with its delicious food, drinks and traditional German performances.

The one-month-long festival has designed a number of different programs, catering for all types of customers. For instance, every Monday and Tuesday until September 24th is "Corporate Day", during which time enterprises can invite their employees or clients to join the 'happy hour'. Each Wednesday and Thursday, visitors can compete in the 'Queen of Beer' Competition. The winner will become the festival's ambassador, and will be given round-trip tickets from Beijing to Munich to participate in the Munich Beer Festival in Germany in October.

Special programs are also planned for the Mid-Autumn Festival which falls on September 12th this year.
