Try some Beijing noodle before a stop at a pearl store.

Beijing would be fun for your solo adventure. We have listed out things you might find interesting.

- Smart Tips:

More than an exterior visit, you can get inside Beijing's new symbol:Bird's Nest. During summer, the water park in Water Cube gives your family a cool-off. Great discount booking with us.

Besides Wangfujing Mall, you can buy something very "Chinese" at Panjiayuan Antique Market or Liulichang Street.

Do try the Peking Duck before you leave Beijing, even for just one bite! Out of the numerous Peking Duck restaurants, we think Peking Duck Private Kitchen is an outstanding one with great value.
