Book the big tickets early
Beijing rewards planning. The Forbidden City and popular museum routes are not things to leave until the last minute.
Choose the Great Wall route carefully
Some routes waste time on shopping stops or poor timing. A clean route should tell you when you leave, where you eat, and what is optional.
Keep one slow evening
The best Beijing memory is often not another attraction. Leave space for hutongs, food, and a quiet walk.
