    "The ticket price bought in advance is cheap, and the double is also very cost-effective. You can enter the park directly with your ID card. There are slightly fewer people in the week. The time to enter the park may be longer. It is very fun. The staff is full of energy and a happy day."

    "The service of the [Royal Bachelor Korean Guide], accompanied throughout the whole process, can also be bullshit. It is that every big palace fence is expanding more and more. I look forward to driving in next time, and I will die..."
    Beijing.Tian'anmen Square and Wangfujing Area
    >100km from Datong
    Highlights: Most tourists who visit Beijing for the first time consider the Forbidden City a place they must see. The Forbidden City, known as Gugong in Mandarin, once served as the imperial palace for 24 emperors during the Ming and Qing dynasties. It is a symbol of ancient China. Although it is no longer China's political center, you can still feel its former glory once you are surrounded by the high walls in the courtyard. Its long history has left behind many precious architecture and cultural relics, making it one of modern China's most important cultural heritages.

    "I didn't expect so many people at this time. I thought about traveling on the wrong peak before May 1st. April in Beijing is really the peak season. The sun is big but not too hot. It is very cool to protect and shade. Queue for an hour, the good man has been for 2 hours."
    Beijing.Yanqing Resort Area
    >100km from Datong
    Highlights: The Badaling Great Wall in Yanqing, Beijing, is a pass for the Ming Great Wall. As the saying goes, "You are not a hero until you reach the Great Wall." Most locals consider this spot the start of the ascent of the Great Wall. The Badaling Great Wall is the most complete section among the various great walls in Beijing. The total length of this section is 7.5 miles (12 kilometers) with 43 watchtowers; however, only 2.3 miles (3.74 kilometers) and 19 watchtowers have been restored and opened to visitors. Compared with other sections, most stairs are not very steep and equipped with handrails, so it is a relatively easier climb.

    "The Summer Palace is more charming when the sun sets. When the golden sun shines on the lake, the whole park seems to be plated with a layer of gold edge. At this time, strolling along the path of the park, it seems to be in a fairyland. The scenery of the Summer Palace is picturesque, and it seems to be in a natural picture."
    Beijing.Zhongguancun Area
    >100km from Datong
    Highlights: Situated in the Haidian District northwest of Beijing, the Summer Palace is a Unesco World Heritage site that used to be the palace and garden of the emperors of the Qing Dynasty. It is the largest and most well preserved royal park in China. Construction of the palace began in 1750 and it served as a residential and entertainment area for the royal members. The palace underwent two major reconstructions after suffering damages during invasions by the Anglo-French Allied Forces and the Eight-Power Allied Forces during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Summer Palace can be divided into three sectors: a political activity area centered at the Hall of Benevolence and Longevity; an empress living area concentrated around the Hall of Jade Billows and Hall of Joy and Longevity; and a tour route concentrated along the long corridor, rear hill, and the west sector.

    "Xiucai said that Mr. Li took me to visit Prince Gong's Mansion. Prince Gong's Mansion is a representative of the Beijing Wangfu Building. It has witnessed the development of the history of the Qing Dynasty. It is worth seeing. The tour guide explained clearly and vividly, the time route arrangement is reasonable, and there is no shopping throughout the whole process."
