Beijing attractions, help for planning to visit them

I visited a few important attractions in Beijing, so I can give you an itinerary and estimated visiting time for each attractions. It's best to start with attractions where reservations are necessary. I also think it's important to alternate between hard and easy days. I didn't do it that way and sometimes I didn't even have time to eat properly for days. So let's see this in a two-column table: Attraction: estimated visit duration: Forbidden city / Palace Museum: full day Summer Palace: full day Badaling Great Wall: full day Beihai park + Qianhai lake: full day Temple of Heaven: 7 hours Jingshan park: 3-4 hours Small parks like Tuanjiheu park: 1-2 hours National Museum of China + Tiananmen square: full day Important note: At the museum closing time the people are released to the Tiananmen square, so you can visit it without going through again the security or getting appointment to the square. National Art Museum of China: 3-4 hours Natural History Museum of China: 5-6 hours Wangfujing street, walking street and around: 1 hour #travel #attractions #museums #temples #park
