Route

1. Discover the Badaling Ancient Great Wall, a lesser-known but deeply authentic section of the world-famous Great Wall of China. Unlike the restored tourist areas, this part remains mostly untouched, preserving the original stonework and wild mountain setting. With fewer crowds and minimal commercial development, it offers a raw, rugged atmosphere ideal for those seeking a deeper connection with history and nature. The Badaling Ancient Wall feels primitive and adventurous, making it a favorite among hikers, photographers, and history lovers. Surrounded by dramatic peaks and quiet trails, visitors can experience the Wall much as it was centuries ago — weathered, majestic, and powerful. This section is perfect for travelers who value authenticity over convenience, and who wish to explore one of China’s greatest wonders without distraction. For a true hiking experience off the beaten path, the Badaling Ancient Great Wall is a rare and unforgettable destination.

2. Marvel at the Bird’s Nest, Beijing’s iconic National Stadium and a masterpiece of modern architecture. Designed by Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron with Chinese artist Ai Weiwei, this striking structure was built for the 2008 Olympic Games and instantly became a global symbol of innovation and elegance. Its bold, nest-like steel lattice design is both futuristic and deeply symbolic, representing unity and strength. By day, its sweeping curves and massive form captivate the eye; by night, it glows with lights, creating a stunning reflection on the surrounding water. More than just a stadium, the Bird’s Nest is a cultural landmark blending art, sport, and national pride. Whether you’re an architecture enthusiast, photographer, or simply curious traveler, it’s a must-see on any Beijing itinerary.

About Beijing

Peking, al eeuwen de hoofdstad van China, heeft keizerlijke paleizen, heilige tempels en stukken van de Chinese Muur vlak bij moderne boulevards.

In het hart van de stad strekt de Verboden Stad zich uit achter vermiljoenrode muren, een labyrint van zalen en binnenplaatsen waar de keizers van de Ming- en Qing-dynastie woonden. Het Tiananmenplein ligt ten zuiden ervan, en de heuvel van het Jingshan-park ten noorden ervan geeft het mooiste uitzicht over de gouden daken. De Hemeltempel, gelegen in een park waar buurtbewoners tai chi beoefenen en dansen, is een meesterwerk van keizerlijk ontwerp.

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