Highlights
- Beijing - Your designated English-speaking chauffeur will greet you in the hotel lobby. An early departure is recommended to bypass the crowds and traffic. You have the flexibility to set the departure time according to your convenience. The journey from the hotel to the ancient village will take approximately 2 hours.
-
Cuandixia Village - En route to the village, you’ll be treated to picturesque views of mountains and rural landscapes. Cuandixia Village is home to about 70 traditional courtyard dwellings that ascend a hillside, established over 400 years ago by settlers from Shanxi province. Throughout the Ming and Qing dynasties, the village was situated along a crucial mountain pass to Hebei and Shanxi, serving as a hub for merchants. The villagers would host wayfarers, catering to the needs of traders. As modern transportation infrastructure developed, Cuandixia’s significance waned and it became a relic of the past.
Lunch at a local family-run eatery will give you a taste of genuine rural cuisine (note that the cost of lunch is not included). - Beijing - Should you opt to skip lunch, you will be driven back to your hotel, a journey that should take around 2.5 hours, assuming there are no major traffic delays.
