What to expect
Comfortable introduction to Beijing
The guide will meet you at the airport at the scheduled time. You won't have to look for a taxi or figure out how to get to the hotel on public transport. Along the way, you will learn about the city and the places you will visit. The guide will also share the history of the sites you will visit.
Great Wall of China
You will head to one of the most famous and impressive architectural wonders of the world. You will see the well-preserved Mutianyu section, take a walk along it, and feel the spirit of the past.
Jingshan Park
Located north of the Forbidden City, the park was an imperial garden for 700 years. Now it is a picturesque place where you can admire the panoramic view of Beijing and the palace complex. We will climb the man-made hill 46 meters high for you to take bright photos against the backdrop of the surroundings.
Tea Ceremony
Then you will visit a traditional teahouse. The master will introduce you to the rich history of Chinese tea, talk about its features, demonstrate traditional brewing methods, explaining each step and its significance.
