Beijing Matkaopas

Beijing is the most modern and cosmopolitan city in China, despite having a long history that began 500,000 years ago. It is the governmental capital of this most populous country yet it is home to two of the world's most famous sites, Tiananmen Square and The Forbidden City. These contradictions are not lost on travelers who stroll under skyscrapers one minute and delve into ancient Chine relics the next. Be sure to indulge in the cultural nightlife by taking in a Chinese opera, concert, or acrobatics show. You can also feel free to make friends with the locals who are friendly and quick with a smile or to help with directions.
