Day 02Beijing

This morning, you will visit Tiananmen Square, the largest central square in Beijing, where many national celebration ceremonies were held. Walking northward from the square, you will enter the well-known Forbidden City. Our guide will escort you to tour in this largest and best-preserved imperial palace constructed 590 years ago. As is our practice to avoid the cheap tourist eateries, we will serve you an a la carte lunch at a noted local restaurant, where you can taste the authentic Chinese cuisine. In the afternoon, you will tour the Temple of Heaven. Different from the red and yellow colors of the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven is in red and blue because it is an inviolable altar where the Emperors communicated with the God of Heaven. To round off a memorable start to your tour, we will arrange a wonderful and exciting Chinese Kung Fu Show for you at the Red Theater tonight.

Day 03Beijing

After breakfast, you will first go to the Badaling Great Wall, the elite section of China Great Wall, where the splendid defense project is well preserved. To avoid having lunch at shopping site restaurants, we will drive you to have famous Sichuan food at the best local restaurant. After that, you will head for the Ming Tomb which is the largest royal graveyard complex in China. A long Sacred Way has connected the 13 Emperors' tombs here together, and today you will visit the largest one – Dingling Tomb. On the way back to downtown Beijing, you will see the full view of the Bird's Nest, namely the Olympic National Stadium built for 2008 Olympics. Our driver will stop there for a few minutes so that you can take some pictures.

Day 04Departure from Beijing

There is a tour to the Summer Palace this morning. The palace, which was famed as 'Imperial Garden Museum of China', is a well-preserved one combining the natural landscape and delicate gardening design. The classic buildings and elegant scenery in the park will give your Beijing tour a memorable aftertaste. After that, we will transfer you to the airport for your homebound flight. Although it is a short stay in China, we believe the highlight attractions of Beijing and also our dedicated service will impress you a lot. Hope next time we still have the chance to serve you.
