A practical route with the important details made clear
Discover Beijing in six days with the Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven, Mutianyu Great Wall, hutongs and Summer Palace on a flexible private itinerary.
The published sequence is a realistic starting point. Final transport, attraction access, hotel choices and daily timing are checked for your travel dates before confirmation, and the pace can be adjusted for mobility, family or special-interest needs.

Your guide meets you on arrival and provides a private transfer to the hotel. No fixed sightseeing is added to an uncertain arrival window. After check-in, the remainder of the day stays flexible for rest, an easy neighborhood walk and a briefing on the journey ahead.
Begin at Tiananmen Square and follow a clear route through the Forbidden City. After lunch, visit the Temple of Heaven and see how its ceremonial spaces connect to local park life. The sightseeing connects Beijing’s imperial planning, ceremonial spaces and living city history instead of presenting the landmarks as isolated photo stops.
Travel outside the city to Mutianyu. Select a walking section and cable-car combination suited to your fitness, with time for viewpoints and photographs before returning to Beijing. At the Great Wall, your guide chooses a practical walking section and viewpoint sequence suited to your energy, visibility and preferred cable-car option.
Explore hutong lanes around the Drum and Bell Tower area, visit a traditional courtyard and continue through the Shichahai lakes district at an unhurried pace. Your guide links the day’s main sights with local context, practical timing and enough flexibility to enjoy each stop without rushing.
Walk through the Summer Palace gardens beside Kunming Lake, then return through the Olympic Park area for a contrast between imperial landscape design and modern architecture. Your guide links the day’s main sights with local context, practical timing and enough flexibility to enjoy each stop without rushing.
Check out after breakfast and transfer privately to the airport or railway station. Extra sightseeing can be discussed when the departure time allows. The final hours remain flexible for rest or a nearby visit, depending on the confirmed departure schedule. Confirm the flight or train time in advance so the final hotel checkout and onward transport can be planned without rushing.
