After lunch, we will drive back to Beijing downtown, Stroll around Beihai Park, admire the imperial architecture and enjoy a impressive Peking Opera performance.

Located to the west of the Forbidden City and Jingshan Park, Beihai Park is one of the best-preserved imperial parks in the center of Beijing. More than half of the area is taken up by a large lake, where lots of travelers go boating in the summer and skating in the winter. The White Pagoda on the mountain beside the lake is the symbol of this park, which offers a vantage point with a beautiful view of the whole park. Other ancient buildings, such as Hao Pu Creek Garden, Quiet Heart Studio, Nine-dragon Screen, Five Dragon Pavilions and Circular City, show different effects of mountain-water combinations in ancient Chinese architectures.

Peking opera, or Beijing opera, “the quintessence of China”, displays a uniquely Chinese art form. As one of the classic art forms of imperial China, Beijing Opera is a staple of cultural tradition in the modern era. Reflecting the opulence and dramatic storytelling from as far back as the mid Qing Dynasty (late 18th century), the actors and actresses keep the history of China alive with their vivid costumes and lilting voices. It is a combination of acrobatics, singing, and dancing. Stylistic role-play, facial make-up, costumes, vocal skills, and traditional music are the major highlights of Peking opera. Afterwards, enjoy comfortable transfer back to your hotel, Wrap your memories and say good-bye in your hotel.
