- Juyong Pass of the Great Wall - Begin your journey with a pickup from your Beijing hotel and travel in a private, air-conditioned vehicle to Juyongguan, the nearest section of the Great Wall to China’s capital. As one of the wall’s three significant mountain passes, Juyongguan stretches between two mountain peaks and derives its name from the Chinese words for ‘pass’ and ‘laborers’ gathering place.’ Walk along the battlements and take the opportunity to enjoy the breathtaking scenery, with the ramparts and watchtowers winding across the peaks.
- Stone Animal - After descending, proceed to the nearby Sacred Way, a paved road leading to the Ming Tombs, which served as a ceremonial funerary route for the Ming emperors. Walk along the pathway, pausing to admire the stone statues of animals and figures that line it.
- Summer Palace (Yiheyuan) - Following lunch at a local, non-tourist restaurant, stop for photos at the Bird’s Nest and Water Cube stadiums in Beijing’s 2008 Olympics Village, and then continue to the Summer Palace. This landscaped oasis of gardens, pavilions, and waterways was created in 1750 as a summer retreat for China’s emperors.
