I'm considering traveling to Beijing for a week immediately following the Olympics (August 26-30). Any thoughts on whether this is a good idea or a bad idea?

Tickets I've seen online have been 300,000 won before taxes. Any input would be great.

Thanks.

You are aware that the "Paralympic games" follow after the Olympics + all the extra tourism this summer so things will still be busy in Beijing at that time.

The good news is that everyone will still be hyped from the main games and it should be a great time. Prices will still be higher than normal.
