Top 10 Things to Do in Beijing
Beijing is the imperial heartbeat of China — a city where 700 years of dynastic power crystallised into the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, and a network of hutong alleyways that still echo with the rhythms of courtyard life. The capital balances this weight of history against the world's fastest-moving modernity: neon-lit skyscraper districts, world-class museums, and Michelin-starred restaurants. To walk its streets is to feel the full arc of civilisation compressed into one extraordinary, overwhelming city.
