The first stop today is the impressive Tiananmen Square, the heart of the city. From there you will enter the imperial Forbidden City, the largest ancient palace complex in the world. Home to 24 emperors, the palace with its fascinating halls and pavilions tell the history of the royal court over 600 years. Afterwards, come to the nearby Jingshan Park.

In the afternoon, we will head to visit the Yonghe Temple, the largest Tibetan Buddhist monastery in Beijing that has been preserved intact for 300 years. Next, you will be taken to visit the Temple of Heaven, the holy altar where ancient emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties offered sacrifice to the God of Heaven for bumper harvests.

Today's highlight is to visit Mutianyu Great Wall. The round-trip cable car is included.  The restaurants nearby the site are of low standard, so we do not arrange the lunch today. It may be the best that you have a big breakfast at the hotel and have some fast food for lunch by yourself. Your guide will show you some restaurants.  After lunch, we will drive back to downtown Beijing and make a photo stop for you at the Bird's Nest, namely the Olympic National Stadium, which held both the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics and 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics. Then, you will have a Hutong tour by rickshaw to travel through the narrow alleys and experience the soul of old Beijing. A Hutong family visit will also be arranged for you to see the traditional courtyard house, where several generations live together in different wings, and learn about their lifestyles.
