Temple of Heaven
The Temple of Heaven was originally constructed in the 1400s during the Ming dynasty as a place of worship to the heavens! It is on the UNESCO World Heritage Site list and is described as having a profound influence on architecture and planning in the Far East for centuries. It was a place for high rituals and sacrifices all the way up to modern times.

Hutong Tour
Hutongs represent an important cultural element of the city of Beijing. Unlike the court life and elite culture of the Forbidden City, Summer Palace, and the Temple of Heaven, the Hutongs represent the culture of the grassroots Beijingers. The Hutongs are residential neighborhoods which still form the heart of Old Beijing. We will visit these buildings and witness the life of the locals.
1 hour
5
Tiananmen Square (Tiananmen Guangchang)
One of the largest public squares in the world located near the city’s Central Business District and the Forbidden City. The square contains the Monument to the People’s Heroes, the Great Hall of the People, the National Museum of China, and the Mausoleum of Mao Zedong. The founding of the People’s Republic of China was announced on this square by Chairman Mao on October 1, 1949. We will walk through the Square on our way to the Forbidden City.
