  1. On a typical tour, your first stop will be the heart of Beijing: Tiananmen Square. Your guide will meet you in your hotel lobby and accompany you to your climate-controled vehicle for the short drive to this iconic landmark. You'll have around 30 minutes here. Your guide will show you the imposing Monument to the People's Heroes, and the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall, where the revolutionary leader's body is perserved.

  2. It's a few minutes walk from Tiananmen Square to the Forbidden City, the home of emperors for over 500 years, and the largest palace complex in the world. Enjoy skip-the-line entry to this UNESCO World Heritage Site, and tour some of its grand halls and stunning gardens as your guide tells you fascinating stories.

  3. After enjoying your lunch at a nice local restaurant in Beijing, you will head up to Temple of Heaven,The Temple of Heaven was once the place of worshipping for the emperor’s of the Ming and Qing Dynasty. The temple was located in the southeast of Forbidden City’s wall and on the east of Zhengyangmen. Constructed between 1420, the Temple was constructed under the reign of the Yongle Emperor. The Temple of Heaven covers an astonishing 2.72 million m2. It is larger than the Forbidden City as the Emperor’s once considered themselves Son’s of the Heaven, naturally the Temple should be larger than their palace. The temple is made up of Yuanqiutan, Huangqiongyu and Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest (Qiniandian) from south to north. The temple demonstrates the accumulation of Chinese culture and religion. The architecture and décor of the temple are truly breathtaking. From here, we will drive back to your hotel, arriving time depending on when your tour begin.
