Beijing (北京)

China’s capital city is a must-see for visitors to China, and you can spend two or three days visiting the usual tourist haunts: the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square and the Great Wall. But leave time to visit sites off the beaten track, and venture into neighborhoods where ordinary people live. And no visit to Beijing would be complete without sampling the city’s culinary delicacies, from Peking duck to jiaozi (Northern-style dumplings).
