At some 08:00 am our guide and driver will greet you at your hotel in Beijing downtown area. First we will drive to visit the Ming Tombs, and explore the underground palace of Changling. Changling is the tomb of the 2nd Emperor of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di. It is regarded as the grandest one among the 13 Ming Tombs in Beijing. After lunch we will drive to the most famous and the best-preserved section of Chinese Ming Dynasty Great Wall: Badaling Great Wall. The mountain slope is very steep and the roads are tortuous, which make it an important military stronghold in ancient time. The wall is like a strong dragon winding its way along the mountain ranges. If hiking is too much for you, cable car is available and optional. Today you will also stop by the Jade Carving Factory as well as Tea Shop to learn about Chinese jade and tea culture, appreciate some exquisite jade artworks and try different kinds of tea.
After visiting, you will be escorted back to your Beijing downtown hotel at around 5:00 pm.
