Free entry is allowed on Sunday in a bid to remember history and draw more people into the memorial place."Beijing.Zhongguancun Area>100km from DatongHighlights: Situated in the Haidian District northwest of Beijing, the Summer Palace is a Unesco World Heritage site that used to be the palace and garden of the emperors of the Qing Dynasty. It is the largest and most well preserved royal park in China. Construction of the palace began in 1750 and it served as a residential and entertainment area for the royal members. The palace underwent two major reconstructions after suffering damages during invasions by the Anglo-French Allied Forces and the Eight-Power Allied Forces during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Summer Palace can be divided into three sectors: a political activity area centered at the Hall of Benevolence and Longevity; an empress living area concentrated around the Hall of Jade Billows and Hall of Joy and Longevity; and a tour route concentrated along the long corridor, rear hill, and the west sector.Show Less

Every attraction from the siege to the Kowloon Wall has a very careful explanation. Although it is raining, it does not affect our mood. The slight rain has no artistic conception. It is worth praise that our team leader explained it perfectly, funny and gentle. Thank you Mr. Zhang."Beijing.Tian'anmen Square and Wangfujing Area>100km from DatongHighlights: Beihai Park lies to the northwest of the Forbidden City. Beihai, Zhonghai, and Nanhai are collectively known as the Sanhai. Beihai Park was once an imperial garden. It is also the park with the strongest feeling of original Beijing within the Imperial City walls. In the mornings, elderly locals exercise and take a walk with their caged birds; the afternoons and evenings are the time for taking a rowing trip around the park. When visiting Beihai Park, you can admire the exquisite buildings left behind by the dynasty. You can also sit beside the lake, chatting with the seniors and listening to their stories about Beijing.Show Less
