Highlights

Start the day bright and early with this breakfast tour of the hutongs around Houhai (Rear Lake).

You might even discover a new favorite meal. Afterward, enjoy a brisk walk around Beihai Park, a former imperial garden in the center of the city. Visit imperial landmarks like the Nine Dragon Screen and the White Pagoda Watch locals as they do early-morning yoga and tai chi – and maybe even join in No central meeting point to find: meet your private guide in your hotel lobby Great for the whole family: deep discounts for children aged 12 and under

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).
