• Tiananmen Square (Tiananmen Guangchang) - In the morning, your professional guide will pick you up at your hotel lobby, and then a comfortable and capacious chauffeur-driven minivan will transfer you to Tiananmen Square. Follow your guide to take a morning walk around this city square, and you can shoot distant view photos of the brilliant landmark buildings such as the Monument to the People’s Heroes, the Great Hall of the People and the Memorial Hall of Chairman Mao. - Forbidden City-The Palace Museum - Walk through the Gate of Heavenly Peace with the great Chairman Mao’s portrait on it; you come to this morning’s highlight - the 600-year-old Forbidden City - the largest and the most intact imperial palace complex of the Ming and Qing Courts (1368 - 1911 AD). The majestic Forbidden City has 9,999 rooms! Which are the most essential and interesting parts? The veteran itinerary designer carefully selects the top 10 palaces for you, including major ones on the traditional central axis, and some special chambers on the east and west wings. Note: Since the Forbidden City is closed on Mondays, this tour designer carefully choose the Summer Palace instead of Tiananmen Square & the Forbidden City if your travel date happens to meet Monday. Summer Palace is the largest and best preserved royal garden in the world. It is a fantastic resort for travelers to admire the peaceful landscapes and magnificent architecture. - Mutianyu Great Wall - After 1.5 hours driving, you will arrive at the Mutianyu Great Wall, which is the best preserved and most popular section among all in Beijing. The itinerary designer smartly choose afternoon to visit the Wall to avoid the crowds, and you’ll have at least 2.5 hours to visit the wall and take some nice photos. - Back Lakes (Hou Hai) - Finally, your tour guide will accompany you to the Houhai Lake Area and Yandaixiejie Hutong, which is a typical representative of old Beijing. Home to various specialty bars, cafes and restaurants, it is an ideal place to discover the unique charms of the old alleyways, enjoy the amazing scenery of the Houhai Lake, try the authentic local food and snacks, or just spend time there to experience the vibrant nightlife of Beijing. If you like, you can explore it leisurely by yourselves and return to the hotel by taxi. If you are not interested in visiting the Hutong area, your guide will escort you back to the hotel after dropping off the other travelers there. Hope you have enjoyed this day trip with us!
