Nice park to while away an hour or two for listening to singing and music, and watching the locals going about their lives.

Tiananmen Square, which is the largest city center square in the world. It's named after the Tiananmen Gate (Gate of Heavenly Peace) located to its North, separating it from the Forbidden City. It has great cultural significance as it was the site of several important events in Chinese history. The Forbidden City was the Chinese imperial palace from the Ming Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty. It is located in the center of Beijing. For almost 600 years, it served as the home of emperors and their households, as well as the ceremonial and political center of Chinese government.

After a nice Chinese lunch, you will head to Summer Palace,the largest and best-preserved of the surviving imperial garden.Once a summer retreat for emperors, this 716-acre park is still a retreat for tourist, who can relax here or stroll around ancient pavilions, mansions, temples, bridges and huge lake, stopping occasionally at a shop or tea-house. Much-loved summer retreat of the Imperial families, the lovely landscaped gardens, halls, pavilions and corridors are set around the lake and rivers in natural harmony.
Then back to the hotel.

Coco was our guide for this long day of sightseeing and she was great! She is very knowledgeable and had answers to all questions. We saw The Temple of Heaven first, then to Tian'anmen Sq which was closed due to Putin visiting, then to The Forbidden City, and lastly to The Summer Palace. All areas were somewhat crowded and the temps were high. Coco moved us through the crowds, made sure we rested when needed and was most patient. She took us to an amazing lunch at a local restaurant. I would highly recommend her and would definitely request her again.
