    "Xiucai said that Zhang Dao has a deep historical knowledge and the story told is very exciting. The family likes to listen to it. He took us into the Forbidden City of Red Wall and Yellow Wall. He learned a lot of stories of the deep palace that I didn’t know before. It is worth recommending."
    Beijing.Tian'anmen Square and Wangfujing Area
    >100km from Laiyuan
    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.

    "Very, very spectacular, I can't feel it without seeing it with my own eyes. The ancients were really amazing, and the Great Wall was really beautiful. Going in May, the sky is not very hot, climb the Great Wall, look at the clouds and see the trees."

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 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.

    "The Mutianyu Great Wall is very good. I think it is better than Badaling to climb the ladder. The elderly can also climb. If the child is relatively small, it is recommended to go up and down the ropeway (the slide can control the speed by themselves). This is almost not afraid of the cable car. Just get up to a better place and take the ropeway train slide. If you want to go, you can go down the cable car, the slide or the ropeway."

    "The essence route, although the time is tight, but it is all over, time is still enough for me, the suspension temple did not go up because there is no ticket, the tour guide Xiao Xie is still very responsible, the pair of colleagues because they are on the road only found that they bought the wrong ticket time, The tour guide has been helping to contact the traffic to send them back to Taiyuan Airport, and there is really no shopping all the way, and there is no sales promotion in the car. I am very satisfied. And the tour guide is very punctual and will not be used to those who are not punctual, so the whole way is based on the established time."
