Beijing

Beijing – The Capital city of the most populous nation on earth and first city of a land that has fired the global imagination, Beijing is  a striking metropolitan core of a country with one of the world’s oldest civilizations. Beijing often surprises first-time visitors who arrive expecting a ragged tableau of communist China. New arrivals are struck by both the city’s modernity and its immensity. But in this headlong rush into the future, history – an increasingly precious commodity – has not been totally condemned.  Beijing has an expansive and fascinating history and easily accessible countryside. Experience its local culture by trekking and camping on the great wall or tour the Forbidden City and enjoy an evening at the Beijing Opera.
