Day 1: Arrival Beijing

The rest of the day is yours to settle in and start getting to know your new surroundings. You will be staying at Xin Qiao Hotel for the night.
Day 2: Beijing
After breakfast, it is time to discover Beijing’s rich heritage as you step back in time to an era when mystery and power reigned. The tour starts today at the symbolic heart of China, Tiananmen Square and later the Forbidden City, to get an overview of China’s communist history while walking through the vast array of halls and monuments. The Forbidden City contains the Imperial Palace Museum which details the history of each dynasty, represented in four palatial halls with antiques and treasures from the Ming to the Qing dynasties. In the afternoon, you will be transferred to go visit and explore the Summer Palace. This UNESCO World Heritage Site comprises walkways, gardens, palaces and lakes. Here you can take your time to stroll around and admire the beauty of the setting along with the ancient architectural structures and collections of cultural relics. Overnight at Xin Qiao Hotel.
Day 3: Beijing
This morning in Beijing takes you to the Temple of Heaven which was founded in the 15th century. The area features a complex of fine buildings set in gardens, surrounded by pine woods. The layout and the individual buildings symbolize the relationship between heaven and earth – the god’s world and the human world – and the special role played by emperors within this association. The temple provides a unique opportunity to see the capital’s past and present exist in cohesion side-by-side. Afterward, you will embark on a 90-minute scenic drive to the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall. This part of the wall is more rugged and covered in expansive greenery. Built as a form of defense by millions of soldiers and peasants, the wall is a remarkable feat of engineering, and archaeologists estimate that it once spanned nearly 10,000 km. In the evening you will be taken back to your hotel. Overnight at Xin Qiao Hotel.
Day 4: Beijing - Xi’an

Day 5: Xi’an
Xi'an is mostly famous for its army of Terracotta Warriors, which consists of 8,000 figures built under the order of the emperor to accompany him to the afterlife. It is an ancient historic past that dates back over 3,000 years. You will get the chance to visit this ancient place after you have enjoyed a delicious breakfast in your hotel.
