Four days give you time to enjoy Beijing at a relaxed pace. The 4 Days Classic Beijing Tour Package (3 nights / 4 days) covers the capital’s imperial treasures – the Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven and Summer Palace, all UNESCO World Heritage Sites – a full day on the Great Wall at Mutianyu, and the old hutong lanes around Shichahai. A licensed English-speaking guide, 4-star hotel with daily breakfast, private transfers, entrance tickets and the Mutianyu cable car are included.
Beijing’s history stretches back more than 3,000 years, and as capital of the Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties it has gathered scores of splendid temples, palaces, monuments and courtyard lanes. You begin with a rickshaw ride through the hutongs and an evening by Houhai Lake. Day two is the imperial heart of the city: Tiananmen Square, the vast Forbidden City, the view over its golden roofs from Jingshan Park, and the circular Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests at the Temple of Heaven.
On day three you drive to Mutianyu, ride the cable car up the Great Wall, walk between the restored watchtowers along wooded ridges and – for fun – take the toboggan down, with a stop at the Olympic Park. Before departure, stroll through the gardens and pavilions of the Summer Palace and along the Long Corridor beside Kunming Lake.
