Beijing, where China's imperial past and vibrant present collide, is the gateway to both ancient and modern China. It is where you can most impressively experience China's glorious history and brilliant culture.
Besides experiencing the famous must-sees, people traveling with China Highlights can do much more: discover hidden halls in the Forbidden City, sleep under the stars on the Great Wall, savor a royal court afternoon tea, and connect with everyday life in a non-touristy hutong.
"Vincent was one of the best ones we have had. He took us to the main attraction, maneuvered us through the crowds, and share what daily home life is like for Chinese people." —Susan G, traveled to Beijing in July 2024.
