Private Walking Tour to National Museum, Tiananmen Square and Forbidden City

After picking you up from your hotel in Beijing, meet your private guide and head to the Tienanmen Square, home to the National Museum of China.

The National Museum of China hosts a collection with over 120 million pieces including works of art and objects representing different national history periods. You can take your time to explore the museum's permanent exhibitions and see the nation's most popular and important objects all in one place.

Next, exploring one of the world’s largest public areas—Tian'anmen Square, home to the Qianmen, the mausoleum of Mao Zedong, The Monument to the Peoples’ Heroes and The Great Hall of the People. If there is anything you particularly want to see, feel free to let your guide know. The best thing about having a private guide is that the tour can be tailored to the things that interest you the most.

Pass through the south gate to the magnificent Forbidden City, a 250-acre complex of courtyards, palaces, pavilions and gardens, which served as the imperial palace for emperors and their households for more than 500 years. The Forbidden City was the imperial palace from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is located in the middle of Beijing, and now houses the Palace Museum. For almost 500 years, it served as the home of emperors and their households, as well as the ceremonial and political center of Chinese government.

Your tour ends up here, you can choose to stay in the Forbidden city to explore more, or your tour guide can help you find a taxi to your next destination.
