As
Great Wall is one of the most amazing world heritages, hiking one of the sections of
Great Wall of China is on the top list of the must do activities for a first-time visitor to Beijing. The
Great Wall day trips on this page are specially designed for those who love
Great Wall hiking, but with limited time - taking a day trip to the
Great Wall of China.
The
Forbidden City ( also known officially as the Imperial Palace Museum ) was commissioned by the third Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Yong Le. The palace was built between 1406 and 1420, but was burnt down, rebuilt, sacked and renovated countless times, so most of the architecture you can see today dates from the 1700's and on wards. The
Forbidden City was the seat of Imperial power for 500 years, and is now a major tourist attraction in China. The total area of the complex is 183 acres, so it takes quite a while to walk through, especially if you want to have a close look at everything. (Lunch included)
Itinerary:
Pick-up from your hotel in Beijing around 9:00 and transfer to
Forbidden City, the largest and best-preserved palatial complex still existing, also known as the Palace Museum. For almost 500 years, it served as the seat-bed of the Emperors in Ming and Qing Dynasties as well as the ceremonial and political centre of Chinese government.
