4+ stars Hotels
After breakfast, we will arrive at Tian'anmen Square, one of the largest city squares in the world. Standing in the North Square, you can look up at the Tiananmen Tower, where Chairman Mao proclaimed the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949. The square is surrounded by several important landmarks, including the Monument to the People's Heroes and the Great Hall of the People.
Passing through Tian'anmen Square, you will enter the Forbidden City, the former imperial palace of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. As the largest and best-preserved palace complex in the world, it reflects the peak of traditional Chinese architecture. You will explore its magnificent halls, golden rooftops, and historic courtyards that once housed emperors and their households.
After lunch, we will drive to the Juyongguan section of the Great Wall, one of the most strategically important passes along the Wall. Less crowded than Badaling but equally impressive, Juyongguan winds through lush mountain scenery and features ancient stone steps, towers, and fortifications. Take your time to hike and admire the majestic views, and feel the power of this ancient defense system.
After the tour, we will return to the city, completing a day filled with history, culture, and unforgettable landscapes.
