After breakfast, our guide will pick you up from the hotel and transfer you to Badaling Great Wall, one of the best-preserved and most developed Great Wall sections among the remained ones and also considered as the most splendid and representative of China Great Wall. For visitors to Beijing, it has for long been a must to ascend the wall and appreciate it winding up and down according to the mountain ridges. Afterwards, to avoid the low-quality food at shopping site restaurants, you will be driven to have lunch of Sichuan cuisine at a popular local restaurant. In the afternoon, the tour will be extended to the Summer Palace, a summer resort used by the royal families 300 years ago.

Day 03Departure from Beijing

The morning tour will cover Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. First, you will have a stroll on the world's largest city center square, Tiananmen Square, which can hold millions of people for gathering. Then, pass through the Golden Water Bridge and enter the well-preserved imperial palace complex, the Forbidden City. 'Forbidden' to the common people in ancient times, this mysterious imperial palace was first unveiled to the public in 1925 as a museum to display the royal lives, magnificent constructions and precious historical relics. Since then, it has been a top travel destination in China. As is our practice to avoid the cheap tourist eateries arranged by most agencies, you will enjoy an a la carte lunch of Cantonese cuisine at a famous local restaurant. In the afternoon, you are going to explore the Temple of Heaven, initially built for the emperors to worship the heaven. Nowadays, the local people take it as a large park for morning exercises and entertainment, hence a good place for you to embrace the local residents' lives. When your Beijing tour ends here, our guide will transfer you to the airport to board the homebound flight. We wish you a pleasant journey home!
