3. Jingshan Park is superbly landscaped with hills to ascend by steps, clear lakes and dignified ancient buildings. It used to be one of the ancient imperial gardens in Beijing, and now has developed as a peaceful public park. Vigorous cypresses are planted widely in the park, creating a quiet and solemn atmosphere with the golden-glazed ancient pavilions. Because of close to north of the Forbidden City, Jingshan Park is the best place for a bird's eye view of the Forbidden City and central Beijing. At dusk, the Forbidden City is particularly beautiful, palace eaves decorated with golden rays of the setting sun.

5. In Beijing, cricket refers to a kind of insect and its Chinese name is Qu Qu(蛐蛐). Keeping cricket has a history of more than 1500 years in China. People like to keep the cricket and watch the cricket fighting. The lifetime of the cricket is only 100 days. It may seem strange that such a little insect could bring great popularity to a place, but the crickets are indeed an extraordinary and indispensable feature. Paper-cutting(剪纸) is a very distinctive visual art of Chinese handicrafts. It originated from the 6th century when women used to paste golden and silver foil cuttings onto their hair at the temples, and men used them in sacred rituals. Today, paper-cuttings are chiefly decorative. They are pasted on the walls, windows, doors, columns and lanterns to express people’s hopes, gratitude and other emotions.

About Beijing

Beijing, Kinas hovedstad i århundreder, har kejserlige paladser, hellige templer og stykker af Den Kinesiske Mur tæt på moderne boulevarder.

I byens hjerte breder Den Forbudte By sig bag cinnoberrøde mure, en labyrint af haller og gårdhaver, hvor kejserne fra Ming- og Qing-dynastierne boede. Den Himmelske Freds Plads ligger syd for den, og bakken i Jingshan Park mod nord giver den bedste udsigt over de gyldne tage. Himmeltemplet, beliggende i en park, hvor lokale dyrker tai chi og danser, er et mesterværk af kejserlig arkitektur.

Top-ranked sights in Beijing: Mutianyu Great Wall, Forbidden City (Palace Museum), Tiananmen Square (Tiananmen Guangchang).
