Highlights
- Dingling Underground Palace - At 08:00 our guide and driver will greet you at your hotel in Beijing city area. First, we will drive to visit the underground palace of Dingling (one of the 13 Ming Dynasty imperial Mausoleums).

- The Great Wall at Badaling - After lunch, we will pay a visit to the Badaling Great Wall, the most famous and the best-preserved section of the Chinese Great Wall.
