Holidays in Beijing Are Enchanting and Exhilarating

Travel to China and visit the capital to explore world-famous heritage landmarks and vibrant cosmopolitan sites.

Every avid traveller has a trip to Beijing on their bucket list if they plan to travel to China. The walled capital welcomes millions of globetrotters annually as they get lost in the labyrinth routes and magnificent architecture.

Hiking across the Great Wall of China is one of the many things to do and see in Beijing. The extraordinary UNESCO World Heritage site is surrounded by lush greenery and the dramatic Yan Mountains.

If you’re in the mood for a leisurely and quiet stroll, visit the heavenly Summer Palace. The royal playground gives you a glimpse of ancient architecture while celebrating new horticulture discoveries.

Completing the trifecta of historic landmarks is the enchanting Forbidden City. The imperial palace showcases the architecture and cultural heritage of the Ming and Qing dynasties.
