Beijing City Highlights

Tiananmen Square (Tiananmen Guangchang) - Your tour guide and driver will pick you up at 8:00 am in the lobby of your Beijing hotel. Your first stop is Tian’anmen Square.

Forbidden City-The Palace Museum - From there, you will pass through the South Gate to the magnificent Forbidden City, a 250-acre complex of courtyards, palaces, pavilions, and gardens that served as the imperial palace for emperors and their households for over 500 years. The Forbidden City was declared a World Heritage Site in 1987. Discover ancient treasures from thousands of years of history and admire the maze of palaces, gardens, and stunning courtyards as your guide shares their histories and stories.

Mutianyu Great Wall - Afterward, enjoy a traditional Chinese lunch at a local restaurant. Then relax during the 1.5-hour drive to the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall.
