From personal experience, i would like to suggest a side trip to Beijing Chuandixia Ancient Village except for the conventional tourist sites. This will help you to know Beijing better and it is really a must if you want to get a clearer idea about how local chinese people live.

This village is well known for its well preserved over 600 Ming and Qing dynasty-style houses housed by 70 families. These houses are contructed on the side of a hill, surrounded by mountains and forests. The village is listed as a village under national level cultural relics protection. It is an ideal place to take pictures. Almost each family at the village now keep their houses to take and welcome tourists. The hosts are all very friendly.

It will take 3 hours driving to the village. First, drive west along No.109 National Road and you will reach Zhai Tang town, which is 80 KM away from Beijing. Then turn north and drive another 10 KM, you will finally enter the village. It's really worthy of your visit. You should have a try.

Because Chengde Summer Resort is really BIG, there are 2 ways to explore this place; one is by the mountain trail on a tourist tram, the other one is the water trail by the boat. However, the boats are operated independently by different private operators. Some of them can really ask for a high price, as much as 60 reminbi per person for a short boat ride about 20 minutes. The tram is much reasonable but very very crowded! Sometimes can see local tourists fighting and quarrelling to get up the tram. In the end, I just took a leisure walk along the lake and took some photos

For those who enjoy walking/hiking, can try to walk up the mountain, I believe it will be spectacular at the top. But if you do not know the way, try to ask the people who worked there or study the map carefully. There are well illustrated maps to show the way.

Beijing Opera for foreigners - I think it loses most of its glamour when you don't understand the language. Plus the transaltion shown on the screen is so bad that it almost seems funny at times! Anyway, it's one of china's country quintessences. If you cannot catch its meaning, just appreciate the colorful stage design and the beautiful costumes of the actors. I did so. At least, i like the atmosphere there and the actors' make-up painting is interesting. Our guide told us peking opera is one of the four must-do things when visit Beijing.
