Visa-Free Transit in Beijing and Discovery Tour
You are lucky to be in Beijing at the right time. Beijing has rolled out a pilot program, allowing overseas visitors to stop over in the city of Beijing for 72 hours visa-free transit in Beijing. The move comes as Beijing tries to become a more desirable and accessible destination for foreign visitors. Beijing is one of the seven ancient capitals in China. This city has a long history, and the first settlement was established on this site over 3000 years ago.
In my opinion, the most representative attraction in Beijing is Badaling Great Wall. It is the most preserved section of the Great Wall. Its giant dragon wall thread through a jumble of mountains. Badaling Great Wall?is truly worth visiting during Beijing tour for its dangerous mountain slopes, splendid scenery, and distinctive four seasons.?Besides its grand and solemn structure, especially, it had a history of more than 2500 years. It was the Warring State Period at that time and made Badaling full of mysteries. Badaling Great Wall?is really worth visiting during Beijing tour.?It is hard to think that what a huge project completed by our wisdom ancestors. How much time, money and labor should take in the ancient.
Forbidden City is another must for your travel. Lying at the center of Beijing City, Forbidden City is also known as the Palace Museum. In ancient times, only the emperor and his ministers can enter Forbidden while common people can not entry. Now you have the chance to experience this majestic and magnificent building.
If you want to explore the life of common people in those old periods, you should go to Hutong. There tourists will get a deep understanding about Beijing Hutong Culture. The term of Hutong is an unusual term used only in Beijing and a few northern cities in China. Hutong that is what the small back streets or lanes of Beijing are called. In fact, it was originally a Han language term, but came from Mongolian roots. In the northern grasslands communities tended to form around wells, so "hot" or "well" in Mongolian, came also to mean a town, and a Hudu or Hudun, variants of it, a camp or village. Later it was applied to a small street. The sound gradually changed to Hutong.
Do you moved by these famous typical sightseeing? If you, act now, may be it is the chance of lifetime.
