Tour Attraction Description
Picked by our tour guide at Beijing airport. Then head to Tiananmen Square, the largest public square of this kind in the world. Located in the heart of Beijing City,
it is the site for massive parades and rallies.This was the site when in 1949, from a rostrum on Tiananmen (the Gate of Heavenly Peace), Chairman Mao proclaimed
the establishment of the People's Republic of China.Tiananmen Square Travel Tips
For security reason, Tiananmen Square is a fenced square circled by low iron grids with main four entrances – east, west, south and north.
The square is now open to the public till midnight, but all the tourists have to pass a security check before they enter the square. So check points
have been set up at all the entrances leading to the square.The 40-minute visit allows you to have a glimpse at the outside of Memorial Hall of Chairman Mao, the Monument to the People's Heroes, the magnificent Great Hall of the People, the National Museum of China, the ancient Zhengyang Gate and Arrow Tower as well as the Tiananmen Tower which leads to the well-known Forbidden City.
Then move on to Forbidden City ( 2 Hours). The Forbidden City is the Chinese imperial palace from the mid-Ming Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty (1644 -1911). For almost 500 years, it served as the seat- bed of the Emperors in Ming and Qing Dynasties as well as the ceremonial and political centre of Chinese government.
People have to enter Forbidden City from its southern gate ( linked to Tiananmen Square) and exit from its northern gate, which is officially set as a one-way south to north travel route.
