A millennium old ancient capital in the East
Beijing, the heart of China, carries the millennium civilization and modern vitality. As the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, it boasts the vermilion palace walls of the Forbidden City, the majestic winding of the Great Wall, the fireworks of the hutongs, and the symmetrical aesthetics of the central axis. This is not only a political center, but also a cultural melting pot. From the cultural relics collected by the Palace Museum to the avant-garde exhibitions in the 798 Art District, tradition and modernity are intertwined here.
The red leaves of Fragrant Hills in the west of Beijing, the shimmering waves of Kunming Lake in the Summer Palace, and the Yongding River Wetland in the south of Beijing form a harmonious picture of nature and culture. The Great Wall of Juyongguan in northern Beijing is like a majestic dragon, while the ancient canal route in Jingdong tells the story of the past of water transportation. On the banks of the Silver Ingot Bridge in Shichahai, the sound of storytelling in an old tea house and the guitar music in a bar compose a duet of life.
As the "dual Olympic city", Beijing boasts a modern landmark cluster of the Olympic Park and a model of industrial heritage transformation in the 798 Art District. The Summer Palace alone encompasses a multidimensional heritage of gardens, architecture, and religion, and also preserves historical districts such as Shichahai and Nanluoguxiang intact.
Our carefully selected quadrangle homestays and high-end hotels allow guests to touch history through the carved window frames and feel the pulse under the glass curtain wall of the CBD. The regularly updated city exploration route will take you from the "Thousand Mile Landscape Map" of the Forbidden City to the ski jumping platform of Shougang Park, customizing your exclusive Beijing style cultural journey.
