No problem! My dad worked there for 1.5 years and is actually going to Beijing next week too so I asked him for some more places:
- Temple of Heaven,
- Temple of Moon,
- Summer Palace,
- Mao Zedong’s Tomb (probably more for the cultural aspect of the place than anything else, my dad says this is a must lol)
- And if you can go out of Beijing, the thousand rivers.
Oh, another thing that I really enjoyed were their trains that went out to the province. Though these tend to be the less cared for trains, you really see the real Chinese in these train cabs.
