Beijing will be in cold winter then. So, please wear your warm clothes (sweater, overcoat or downjacket), scarf and glove. But it is not the coldest time, so you could enjoy some sunshine at daytime all the same. It will be ok for your mother visiting the Great Wall unless she is not in good health currently. Please wear skidproof shoes for climbing up the Great Wall. It is also a good idea to pocket several chocalate or sugar when you traveling outside in winter.
