The Badaling Great Wall is a symbol of Beijing and a must-see for tourists.

The Juyongguan Great Wall is on this way. It was planned and built by Xu Da and Chang Yuchun in the Ming Dynasty. It is famous for its well-preserved Guancheng and numerous architectural monuments.

In the afternoon, take bus 919 at Badaling Station and get off at Changping Dongguan. Change to bus 314 and get off at Dingling (for Juyongguan, take the Changping 22 upbound bus at Xiaozhai Station and get off at Dingling Station) ). Dingling is the tomb of Wanli Emperor Zhu Yijun and his two queens. It is currently the only royal mausoleum developed by the state among the Ten Tombs of the Ming Dynasty. More than 3,000 cultural relics of various types were unearthed from the underground palace, including four national treasures: the Golden Crown, the Phoenix Crown, the Luminous Pearl and the Three Colorful Ming Dynasties. . Dingling shows the magnanimity and luxury of the royal tombs of the Ming Dynasty and is a must-see.

Dingling

The next day: Tiananmen Square→Forbidden City→Prince Gong’s Mansion→Shichahai

If you are interested in national symbolic activities, get up early in the morning and go to Tiananmen Square to watch the flag-raising ceremony. The flag-raising ceremony in Beijing is a symbol of the beginning of a new day for the whole of China, and is strictly carried out according to the rising and setting time of the sun. The time for the flag-raising and lowering ceremony varies every day. For the specific time, please pay attention to the "Beijing Evening News" or call 114 Please inquire, and it is recommended to arrive at the square half an hour in advance because there are many people watching.

Tiananmen Square

The flag-raising ceremony only lasts a few minutes. After watching the flag-raising, it is still early in the morning. Walk a few steps south to the front door, where you can enjoy the most authentic snacks and breakfast in old Beijing (dou zhier). , brain tofu, donkey rolling,...), and then take advantage of the fact that there are few people in the morning and there is no need to queue up, and quickly

visit the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall and the Forbidden City.

Going through the Tiananmen Gate Tower is the Forbidden City. Needless to say, the Forbidden City is the imperial palace of China's Ming and Qing dynasties. It is the largest building complex in the world and displays art treasures from various dynasties. It is recommended to learn about the Forbidden City before visiting so as not to stare at the buildings without knowing what they are about.

Even for the shortest visit, maybe 2-3 hours, you might as well appreciate it carefully, listen to the explanations, and go out at noon.

Forbidden City

Attached is the tour route of the Forbidden City: Meridian Gate-Taihe Gate-Taihe Hall-Baohe Hall-Qianqing Gate-Qianqing Palace-Jiaotai Palace-Kunning Palace -Imperial Garden-Treasure Hall-Qianlong Garden-Nine Dragon Wall-Yangxin Hall-Shenwu Gate.

After leaving the Forbidden City, take bus 5 at Tiananmen Square East Station and get off at Di’anmen Civil War Station. Transfer to bus 111 or 609 and get off at Dongguanfang Station. It’s a 3-minute walk away. Prince Gong's Mansion is known as "half of the history of the Qing Dynasty" because many princes and nobles such as He Shen and Prince Gong lived here. It is now the largest and best-preserved palace in Beijing. Due to Prince Gong's enlightened thinking, the palace is no longer completely traditional in style, but incorporates many Western elements into the gate tower carvings and interior displays.

Prince Kung's Mansion

Tickets for Prince Kung's Mansion are 30 yuan, and there are also packages that add performances and snacks. It depends on your choice.

Prince Gong’s Mansion is buried deep in a hutong. This area is the hutong area of ??old Beijing. It is highly recommended to walk and experience the life of old Beijingers up close. Going east along the Hutong Road is Shichahai. Shichahai is composed of Qianhai, Houhai and Xihai.

It is the place with the most beautiful scenery and the strongest cultural atmosphere in Beijing. The bar streets along the coast have replaced Sanlitun as the new choice for Beijing barbers.

Every summer, when the cicadas are chirping on the beach and the cool breeze is blowing, you can choose a seat by the water and lie down, hold a goblet in your hand, and look at the willows

Yiyi, white gulls flying low, how can they be a Fairy words!

On the third day, Old Summer Palace→Summer Palace

Old Summer Palace is most suitable for midsummer. The lotus flowers in the pool are in full bloom and the curling trees are very beautiful. In other seasons, you only need to visit the Changchun Garden scenic spot. Just look at the ruins of the Western-style building inside. But if you like the poignant beauty of the wilderness and the ancient ruins, you need to visit it carefully.

Old Summer Palace

Admission to the Old Summer Palace is 10 yuan, and an additional 15 yuan is required for the Western-style Tower ruins.

Take Metro Line 4 (north direction of Anhe Bridge) at Yuanmingyuan Station, get off at Xiyuan Station (exit northwest exit A), and walk 600 meters to the Summer Palace. The Summer Palace was the imperial garden of the four emperors Qianlong, Jiaqing, Daoguang and Xianfeng. It was rebuilt in the late Qing Dynasty and served as the residence of Empress Dowager Cixi. The Summer Palace

concentrates the essence of Chinese classical architecture and accommodates garden styles from different regions. It can be called a museum of garden architecture and was listed as a World Cultural Heritage in 1998. The Summer Palace is definitely worth spending 2-3 hours to explore.

Nanluogu Lane is probably the oldest hutong in old Beijing. It was built at the same time as the Yuan Dynasty. With a history of nearly 800 years, it is the only area in my country that has completely preserved the residential pattern of the Yuan Dynasty.

Nanluogu Alley is the main alley, surrounded by alley groups. You can visit Dongmianmian Hutong, Maoer Hutong, Juer Hutong, Yandai Xiejie, etc. in sequence. There are many unique shops, cafes and eating places in the hutong that are worth an afternoon visit. After lunch, we walked around

and experienced the folk life of old Beijing, which was very emotional. In this old city reserve, many film and television dramas are filmed here, and you may be lucky enough to see many film and television stars.

Day 4: Temple of Heaven→Panjiayuan

Today’s route focuses on shopping, Taobao, food and entertainment, ending the trip to old Beijing in a relaxed and happy spiritual enjoyment.

The Temple of Heaven is the place where emperors of the Ming and Qing Dynasties worshiped the gods of heaven and earth and prayed for a good harvest. It is also the largest and most perfect ancient building complex for worshiping heaven in the world. Its architecture fully embodies the philosophical concept of the unity of nature and man in traditional Chinese culture, and has been listed as a world cultural heritage. In the morning, when you see the golden sunshine covering the palace that is as high as the sky, and the clear sky behind the scenes, you will know what the unity of heaven and man is.

Temple of Heaven

Temple of Heaven is 35 yuan in peak season and 30 yuan in off-season. Take bus 36 here, get off at Jinsong South Road West Exit Station, and walk 320 meters to Panjiayuan.

Panjiayuan is the largest flea market in China. There is nothing you can’t think of here, and there is nothing you can’t buy. Old books, old paintings, old newspapers, old stamps, old photos, furniture antiques, and decorative pendants are all available. Here, you can see specialty products from all provinces across the country gathered here. It is not uncommon for foreigners with yellow hair and blue eyes to skillfully bargain with street stall owners with a mouthful of Beijing movies. It’s worth spending a morning shopping overseas. But please pay attention to the opening hours: Monday to Friday 8:30-18:00, Saturday and Sunday 4:30-18:00.

Panjiayuan

Come out of Panjiayuan at noon, take bus No. 12, get off at Jianguomen South Station, and walk to Xiushui Street. The reputation of Xiushui Street spreads far and wide overseas. It is a shopping paradise and the leading clothing brand is enough to make foreigners envy and hate it. You can spend

an afternoon to buy the most fashionable and trendy products with the least amount of money.

It is recommended to go to Wangfujing in the evening (subway Jianguomen Station, take Line 1 and get off at Wangfujing Station). Of course, Wangfujing is not only a shopping paradise, but its gourmet night market is also amazing. Here, you can feast on all the special snacks of old Beijing.
