Tiananmen, Forbidden City, and Hutongs Private Tour

Visit Tiananmen Square, the Mausoleum of Mao Zedong, the Forbidden City, and the traditional hutong streets on our private tour of Beijing.

Description

We will pick you up from your hotel at the scheduled time and head to Tiananmen Square, the largest public square in the world. We will view important sights such as the Qianmen Tower and the Mausoleum of Mao from the outside.

Next, we will visit the Forbidden City, the largest imperial residence in China, home to 24 emperors for over 500 years. You will explore the enclosure and learn its most notable legends.

Afterward, you will have free time to eat and rest.

The tour concludes at your hotel (or an alternate location) 8 hours after pickup.
