The tour requires a lot of walking so pls wear comfortable shoes. The sites we visit have limited accessibility to wheelchairs or baby strollers, but it is still manageable. No tripod is allowed in the tourist site but selfie-sticks are okay to be brought inside.
Forbidden City is Closed on Mondays.
FYI: for some tourist (e.g. the Forbidden City) sites in Beijing, they are closed on Monday.
Hi this is Chen! It’s always more than the sceneries. Stories bring the attractions alive! Story-telling is what I believed to be one of the best ways to do a tour. I offer a unique touring service that focuses on the ancient and genuine historical tales and stories. I took a story-based narration combined with the historical palaces. I also did historical fact checks to ensure the authenticity of the stories I share.
