Overview
Unlock Beijing’s soul on a 3-hour walk where imperial history and living traditions collide. From a temple reborn six times over to lakeside whispers of emperors, this UNESCO-listed axis reveals China’s past in vivid layers. Taste 'jianbing' crepes where Qing eunuchs once bartered, decode cosmic secrets atop the Drum Tower’s 69-step “Stairway to Heaven,” and draw a divination slip as a fortunetelling ritual at Beijing’s most popular Fire God Temple, where locals seek divine guidance on love, health, and success.
Limited to 4 walkers, this tour blends forgotten architecture, tempting street food, and intimate encounters with artisans and temple guardians. Includes access to hidden courtyards, hands-on rituals, and a customized snack trail reflecting centuries of culinary heritage.
Throughout our tour, we experienced Beijing not as a collection of monuments but as a continuous historical narrative written in stone, tradition, and taste. A story still unfolding before your eyes. See China through a Local Lens!
