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).
