Top Things to Do in Beijing
Visit China’s largest collection of historical buildings in a single, sprawling complex, encompassed by citadel walls painted scarlet, running almost 4 km in circumference. Situated right in the middle of Beijing, this palatial complex was the abode of two great Chinese dynasties in the course of history – the Ming and the Qing.
What is a visit to Beijing without stepping foot on this centuries-old jewel of ancient engineering? Contrary to the common belief, the Wall is not continuous – rather, reinforced with natural, topographical defense systems (like vertiginous mountains) in opportune areas. You can access the Wall via numerous provinces in Northern China; Beijing happens to be popular.
Built as a summer-getaway for the emperors wishing to escape the stifling heat of the mainland, Summer Palace offers soothing, cool, breezy hilltop views from inside an intricately designed dwelling fit for kings. The huge Kunming Lake offers for a good rest-stop for your day-long excursion of this palace.
The largest public square in the world at 440,000 m2, this area is enclosed by low fences and surrounded by Russian-style buildings from the 1950s. If you get ambitious, visit the square during sunrise to see perfection in the march of People’s Liberation Army – 108 paces per minute, and 75cm per pace!
