4-Day Private Beijing Tour with a Night Experience on the Great Wall
✨ A Romantic Journey through Beijing and Beyond ✨
The Great Wall of China is one of the most extraordinary landmarks in the world. While most travelers experience its majesty during the day, far fewer know the magic of walking along its illuminated stones at night.
This 4-day Beijing trip combines the city’s iconic highlights with a rare night adventure on the Simatai Great Wall, offering you an unforgettable blend of history, culture, and romance. Stroll through the Forbidden City, admire the Temple of Heaven, walk the Jinshanling Great Wall, stay overnight in the charming Gubei Water Town, and enjoy a hands-on cultural workshop.
🌟 Tour “Wow” Points
Unlock the Secrets of the Forbidden City
Go beyond the standard sightseeing route inside the Forbidden City. Your guide will bring the royal palaces to life with stories about the emperors, empress dowagers, and their families. Explore hidden courtyards and experience how ancient rulers once lived.
Marvel at the Scenic Jinshanling Great Wall
Hike one of the most stunning sections of the Great Wall, where both restored and wild segments meet. Stand atop ancient watchtowers and take in sweeping mountain views, far from the busiest tourist crowds.
Witness the Great Wall Under the Stars
At Simatai, the only Great Wall section open at night, see the wall beautifully lit against the mountain ridges. This romantic illumination offers an entirely new perspective on the world’s most famous defense line.
Experience Traditional Chinese Handicrafts
Join a carefully selected cultural workshop in Gubei Water Town. Choose from tie-dyeing, kite-making, or Buddhist text tracing to create a meaningful keepsake of your Beijing adventure.
Step Back into Old China at Gubei Water Town
Stay overnight in this Ming- and Qing-style town nestled at the foot of the Simatai Great Wall. Its tranquil courtyards, stone bridges, and lantern-lit streets offer the perfect setting to relive ancient Chinese charm.
