Beijing is set to host the 2022 Winter Olympic Games, beating Almaty, the capital of Kazakhstan.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) awarded the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic events to Beijing on Friday afternoon, after a secret ballot in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
The Chinese capital becomes the first city in history to host both Winter and Summer Olympics, after it hosted the summer games in 2008.
