It is an essential visit in Beijing City.
• Forbidden City-The Palace Museum - The grand Forbidden City is the largest and best-preserved imperial palace complex worldwide. It boasts 9,999 rooms during its peak, just one room shy of the number symbolizing ‘Divine Perfection’ in ancient Chinese belief, and is surrounded by a six-meter deep moat and a ten-meter high wall. For five centuries, this palace served as the country’s administrative center. Today, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is one of the city’s most visited attractions.
  The tour guide will lead the group through several palaces, including the opulent Antiquarian of the Palace Museum (Treasures Museum). The guide’s engaging commentary will provide insights into the ancient history, culture, and traditions that shaped the Forbidden City.

• Prince Kung’s (Gong) Mansion - Prince Gong’s Mansion is the best-preserved mansion in China, comprising both the mansion and the park.
  The main layout of Prince Gong’s Mansion includes three sections: middle buildings, east and west buildings. These sections are aligned along the central axis and consist of traditional courtyards. The mansions are constructed with the highest level of building standards of that era. Additionally, each of the three main buildings contains three courtyards, each a popular tourist attraction.
  The group will stroll along Silver Ingot Bridge, Houhai Lake, Yandaixiejie Hutong, and Nanluoguxiang Hutong, sampling snacks and experiencing the local lifestyle.
• Back Lakes (Hou Hai) - Houhai, meaning “Back Sea,” is a large artificial lake in northern downtown Beijing. Along with Qianhai (Front Sea) and Xihai (West Sea), it forms Shichahai. It was reserved for the royal family during the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368), and the surrounding area has been a thriving commercial hub since then. In ancient times, it was home to numerous wine shops, workshops, and opera stages. Today, it is open to everyone. Visitors can enjoy boating on the lake in summer, while in winter, they can skate on the frozen lake. The area is filled with bars, cafes, tea houses, and restaurants, making it popular among foreign visitors and local youth. Additionally, the nearby Hutongs and courtyards of former court officials and celebrities are worth exploring.
• Nanluoguxiang - Nanluoguxiang Hutong is renowned for its authentic Beijing ambiance. It features age-old siheyuans, archways, wall carvings, and former residences of socialites.
