Step into the magnificent Forbidden City (Palace Museum), the world’s ultimate imperial palace. Through its 600 years as the power center from 1420 to 1911 AD, 24 emperors across the Ming and Qing Dynasties successively ruled here, witnessing the rise, peak, and fatal fall of the empire. Navigating its legendary 9,999 rooms can be overwhelming, but our expert-led, fast-track route ensures you smoothly experience the absolute highlights without missing a beat. Note: For Monday departures when the Forbidden City is closed, we’ll pivot to explore the Summer Palace, the emperor’s lakeside retreat.

This was not an execution site as rumored, but the stage for imperial ceremonies, much like the White House lawn. Here, the emperor issued decrees and welcomed home victorious armies.

Explore the Outer Court’s three grand halls, where the emperor hosted state ceremonies.

Discover the Inner Court’s three main palaces - the emperor’s private quarters and executive office.

Wander through the leisure grounds for the emperor and the imperial harem.

Enjoy a scenic 1.5-hour drive to Mutianyu, a beautifully preserved, crowd-free section perfect for your Great Wall adventure. Refuel with a premium buffet lunch, featuring authentic local food and Western favorites, alongside seasonal fruit and soft drinks. To maximize your time and comfort, we’ve included your choice of mountain transport: enjoy a leisurely round-trip cable car ride, or ascend via chairlift and take a thrilling toboggan ride down. Take in the breathtaking views from high above, and enjoy a 2-hour hike along the defensive wall built along the undulating ridges, discovering historical beacon towers and the echoes of the past.
