Four people including a child of 6 years will be in Beijing. Looking for a cultural event such as Peking Opera, acrobats or other event which would hold the interest of the child.

You could take the airport express to reach Dongzhimen Station firstly, and transfer to subway line 2, then change to subway line 1 at Jianguomen Station, get off from Subway line 1 at Tiananmen East Station, you will reach Tiananmen Square, and it takes at most 1 hour for the transportation. You may visit Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City which are the significant attractions.

No special festival on that day. But, some young generation may celebrate the Halloween on Oct 31 at pubs or hotels. Not popular in China.
