FLEXIBLE ROUTE IDEA
Beijing · 3 days
Three city days link the Forbidden City and central axis with hutong neighborhoods, public parks and present-day Beijing, without squeezing in a distant day trip.
This is a planning framework, not a fixed group tour. Stops, transport and daily pace can all be changed.

Beijing
Use the imperial central axis, hutong neighborhoods and public parks to compare historic and present-day Beijing.
Arrival and departure
Arrive and depart through Beijing Capital or Daxing Airport. Because the two airports serve different sides of the city, keep the first and last half-days light until the flight and hotel are confirmed.
Why this route works
Day 1 follows the imperial center, day 2 slows down in hutongs and neighborhood life, and day 3 balances the Temple of Heaven or Summer Palace with a contemporary district.
