In one hour, we will arrive before the Badaling Great Wall, one of the best-preserved sections of the enormous military defense system from the Ming Dynasty. You will spend the whole morning on the Wall appreciating how it snakes through the wilds and towards the horizon on the ridges of rolling mountains. You can climb to the No. 8 North Tower, perching on the highest point, to discover a sweeping view of the Great Wall. After that, drive to the Ming Tombs, a collection of mausoleums of thirteen Ming emperors. Afterwards, your guide and driver will escort you back to your hotel. Thanks for traveling with us!

About Beijing

Beijing, China's capital for centuries, holds imperial palaces, sacred temples and stretches of the Great Wall within reach of its modern boulevards.

At the city's heart, the Forbidden City spreads behind vermilion walls, a labyrinth of halls and courtyards that housed the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties. Tiananmen Square lies to its south, and the hill of Jingshan Park to its north gives the finest view over its golden roofs. The Temple of Heaven, set in a park where locals practise tai chi and dance, is a masterpiece of imperial design.

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