Beijingers saw double on Saturday as the Chinese capital opened its first festival for twins, with hundreds of look-alike pairs.

The four-day government-sponsored international twins festival has attracted 500 sets of twins, including some from abroad.

They range in age from a pair of 4-month-olds to 69.

Why have they come? Most say the main reason is simple: to have fun! By confusing people, maybe?
