Review of tourists who have enjoyed this 3 days tour package:
Although a little repetitive, the Forbidden City was definitely worth the trip! It is the main attraction of Beijing and a massive series of building also known as the “walled city”. 500 years later, while visiting I could still feel the strong imperial power of ancient China. Forbidden City is my favorite tourist destination during the 3 days Beijing package tour! And also thank you very much to my tour guide for telling me so much about the history of the old city.
