Just wait till you're there in the middle of a sandstorm. The Gobi desert gets closer to the city every day, and every month or two in the summer you get sandstorms all across the city from it. The sky turns that grainy yellow colour you see in old photographs, and you can't breathe through the mix of smog, sand, and grit.

There are no white buildings in Beijing. Only gray.
