Summer Palace (Yiheyuan): A work built by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing dynasty to celebrate his mother's birthday. It was also where the imperial relatives loved to come for fun and entertainment. It is no exaggeration to say that this was the earliest “luxury resort” in Asia. The palace is not only a beautiful park but also an architectural masterpiece, with a tight and extremely refined feng shui design. Here you can admire outstanding works such as the Dongmen Palace area, Leshou Hall, Kunming Lake, the Fragrance Pavilion Buddhist hall, …

The Great Wall – a famous wonder known as the “First Wonder of China”, recognised by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage Site in 1987. This famous wall was built of earth and stone from the 5th century BC with the purpose of protecting the country from foreign invasions. The most famous section was built from 220 BC to 200 BC under Qin Shi Huang – the first emperor of China. With a history of more than 2,500 years, the Great Wall has witnessed the rise and fall of many Chinese dynasties, and still stands majestically like a loyal guardian, watching the course of events and history turn. (The group visits Juyongguan Pass).
Shopping at a Chinese herbal paste (cao su non) shop and Tongrentang.
Beijing National Stadium (Beijing Bird's Nest Stadium) – a modern cultural symbol of China with a distinctive elliptical design; seen from afar it looks like a giant bird's nest, which is why it is also called the Bird's Nest Stadium. It hosted the 2008 Summer Olympics and the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2022 Winter Olympics, making Beijing the first city in the world to host both the Summer and Winter Olympics.

Temple of Heaven Park (Altar of Heaven): With architecture modeled on the imperial crown, this is where the Ming and Qing emperors came every year to hold the “Sacrifice to Heaven” and “Prayer for Good Fortune” rites, praying for peace across the realm and for an annual grain harvest.
Hutong old quarter is a small, narrow labyrinth of winding alleys that gives the feeling of stepping into another world. It preserves traditional houses with distinctive architecture and is a vivid testament to the long-standing history and culture of Beijing.
