The guide will warmly welcome you and provide a detailed introduction to the day’s itinerary, addressing any initial questions you might have. The private vehicle ensures a comfortable and convenient start to your day.

Upon pickup, proceed directly to Tiananmen Square, one of the largest public squares globally and a symbol of modern Chinese history. Here, you can view the Monument to the People’s Heroes, a solemn tribute to the martyrs of the Chinese revolution.

Additionally, see the Great Hall of the People, where significant national meetings occur, and the Mausoleum of Mao Zedong (subject to opening hours), which houses the embalmed body of Chairman Mao.

• Forbidden City-The Palace Museum - A short walk from Tiananmen Square leads you to the Forbidden City, a vast palace complex that served as the imperial palace for the Ming and Qing dynasties for over 500 years.

It features numerous palaces, halls, and gardens. The red-painted walls and golden-tiled roofs create a magnificent imperial atmosphere.

• Hall of Great Harmony (Taihe Dian) - Once inside the Forbidden City, your exploration begins with the magnificent Three Great Halls. The Hall of Supreme Harmony is the largest wooden structure in the complex and was used for grand imperial ceremonies. Here, emperors held important events such as coronations and celebrations. Next is the Hall of Central Harmony, a smaller hall where emperors rested and prepared before ceremonies. The Hall of Preserving Harmony was used for imperial examinations.
• Palace of Heavenly Purity - Moving on to the Inner Court, you’ll visit the Palace of Heavenly Purity, which served as the living quarters of emperors in the Ming and early Qing dynasties. Adjacent is the Palace of Earthly Tranquility, the residence of empresses. The Hall of Union and Peace, located between these two palaces, was used for various imperial functions.
• The Imperial Garden of The Palace Museum - After exploring the key areas of the Forbidden City, you’ll proceed to the Imperial Garden. This beautiful garden, filled with ancient trees, pavilions, and rockeries, offers a peaceful retreat within the grand palace complex. You will then exit the Forbidden City through the gate near the Imperial Garden, marking the end of this historical and cultural exploration.

There are several local restaurants near the Forbidden City. Your guide will recommend a suitable place to enjoy a delicious Chinese lunch.

• Mutianyu Great Wall - The well-preserved watchtowers and the meandering wall create a breathtaking sight. You can choose to take the cable car or the ropeway up to the wall, which not only saves energy but also provides a bird’s-eye view of the magnificent scenery.
