Looking for a 5-day trip to Beijing, an itinerary suitable for the elderly?

First of all, let’s talk about accommodation. I recommend you to live in Deshengmen. Just across from the train station, take the subway to Jishuitan Station and get to Deshengmen. It’s quite cheap to live there. I went there once in late May this year and got a double room. It’s only 150. It’s cheap to live here and the transportation is convenient. Deshengmen is an important transportation hub, especially if you want to go to the Great Wall. There is a departure train to the Great Wall. It is recommended to take the 919 Badaling direct bus, which seems to be 12 yuan. , it took only an hour and a half to reach the Badaling Great Wall.

To briefly talk about the descent, go to the Great Wall directly from Deshengmen 919 Badaling (be sure to choose the direct one and not the other 919)

It is also convenient to ask the hotel in advance when going to other attractions. The waiters all know that Deshengmen has subways and buses in all directions and is convenient for general attractions. You don’t need to look for them in advance.

For Beijing snacks, if you live in Deshengmen, there is a Jiujiu Special snacks, there are so many snacks that I don’t know how to describe. They look appetizing in various shapes and are not expensive. In May, my wife and I couldn’t eat anything that cost 100 yuan per meal

For roast duck, you must go to the Quanjude restaurant at the front door. When you get there, you will know that the price is a bit expensive, but it is good. In May, it was 398 for roast duck. They offer set meals. At that time, I chose a set meal that cost about 400 for two people. It was not enough for two people. The table is almost enough for 4 or 5 people. Besides, it’s too much to eat.

Recommended attractions. The Great Wall and Tiananmen are what you plan to go to, so I won’t go into details. For the elderly, I recommend the Temple of Heaven. If your legs are good, you can go to the Forbidden City. The Forbidden City is too big. It’s just a walk, and there aren’t many other attractions suitable for the elderly.
