It’s just like living in the history and making its new chapter along with the other people in the city. Hope I can be back very soon. Also, the national museum, the capital museum and some other kinds of museum are the places that travelers often forget. But if you want to get a really deeper look, don’t miss the museums! Especially the national museum next to the TianAnMen square, it’s Huge! There are always some temporary exhibitions in the Forbidden City as well

Beijing is safe, clean, efficient, and not very expensive. I think Spring and Fall are the best time to visit. Summer is stifling hot and humid and winter can be cold and windy. Go to Temple of Heaven early to see the hundreds of seniors doing their dancing, exercising, singing, or just having a great time with other seniors. Signs are mostly bilingual.
