Hi there!

Great to hear you and your wife will be visiting Beijing this June! With 5 days to explore, there are a lot of amazing places to see.

The most visited and iconic spot in Beijing is definitely the Great Wall of China—specifically the Mutianyu or Badaling sections. They offer stunning views and are well-preserved, making for an unforgettable experience. Another must-visit is the Forbidden City, a vast palace complex in the heart of Beijing that once served as the imperial palace. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of China’s top tourist destinations.

If you're into nature and culture, the Temple of Heaven and Summer Palace should also be on your list. The Temple of Heaven is an incredible historical site, and the Summer Palace is perfect for a relaxing stroll with beautiful gardens and lakes.

Lastly, the Tiananmen Square—the world’s largest public square—is an iconic spot too, right in the center of the city.

For a mix of history, culture, and breathtaking views, these are some of the best places to visit in Beijing.

Let me know if you need more info on any of these spots or suggestions for other cool places to check out!
