Beijing Hotels with Transfer

The Tiananmen Square was created in 1652 and during the times of Mao it often served for various performances. But really famous in Europe this square became after the campus unrests of 1989, which were cruelly put down by the government. The Tiananmen Square is the center of Beijing. If to cross the street in the direction of the Forbidden City, you'll see the gates of the Tiananmen Square. Over them you'll find the marvelous image of Manchuria. The Old Summer Palace: unfortunately, just a little has left from this palace, that used to be one of the most fabulous and attractive buildings of China. It was almost completely ruined by French and British army during the Second Opium War of 1860. The palace was built in 12th century as an element of an enormous park territory to the north-west of Beijing.

The Summer Palace used to be the favorite place for thinking about the future of the country and simply having rest of Empress Ci Xi. It'll be a mistake to think that the beauty can be fully felt only in summer. In winter it still attracts many people with the harmony of the gardens, lake landscapes, hills and pavilions.
