Temple of Heaven & Forbidden City & Peking Opera Mask Painting Experience & Peking Duck Feast

Temple of Heaven - Begin your day at the Temple of Heaven, a 600-year-old ceremonial site where Ming (1368-1644 AD) and Qing (1644-1912 AD) emperors conducted grand rituals to pray for bountiful harvests and divine blessings.

Be sure to visit the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, a 38-meter-tall circular structure built without nails. Experience the Echo Wall, where whispers travel magically across 65 meters.

Join a Tai Chi session in the park, practicing this ancient martial art with locals for a serene and invigorating experience.

Forbidden City-The Palace Museum - Enter the Forbidden City, the largest and best-preserved palace complex in the world. Constructed in the early 1400s, it covers over 180 acres with more than 8,700 rooms, serving as the residence for 24 emperors for nearly 500 years. For comparison, the Forbidden City is over four times larger than Buckingham Palace (39 acres) and vastly exceeds the White House, which occupies just 18 acres.

This imperial city is a living museum of Chinese art, culture, and history. Highlights include the Hall of Supreme Harmony, where the emperor held his throne, and the Imperial Garden, a tranquil and beautiful retreat.

Shichahai Scenic Resort - Explore the art of Peking Opera mask painting, a tradition rich in history and symbolism. Discover the meaning behind the bold colors and intricate designs, then paint your own mask under expert guidance.

Wangfujing Street - A visit to Beijing isn’t complete without trying Peking Duck, the city’s signature dish. Watch as the chef expertly carves crispy, golden duck into thin slices, served with pancakes, scallions, and hoisin sauce.

Savor the perfect balance of rich flavors and crispy texture, a dish once reserved for royalty but now cherished by all. A must-try for food enthusiasts!

Mutianyu Great Wall & Bird’s Nest & Water Cube & Hotpot & Full-Body Spa

Mutianyu Great Wall - No visit to Beijing is complete without seeing the Great Wall of China, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World.
