  4. Wan Li Chang Cheng/Great Wall The most famous and monumental attraction in probably the whole of China; The Great Wall. The Wall runs for about 4,500 miles including all of the branches. It was originally built to keep out the Mongolians from invading China. It not only acted as a barrier, but was useful in warning people that attackers were coming

  5. Yi He Yuan/Summer Palace The Summer Palace is considered one of the most scenic and beautiful gardens in China. The imperial residences were first built on Kunming Lake 1153 and then in 1888 it was reconstructed by the Empress Dowager Ci Xi. Yi He Yuan can be translated as The Garden of Health and Harmony

  6. Tian An Men Guang Chang/Tian An Men Square The Tian An Men Square is the place that holds Mao De Zong’s Memorial hall, Monument to the People’s Heroes, Tian An Men Tower. At one time, it can hold up to one million people! You can see the national flag raising ceremony every morning if you get up early! The Tian An Men Guang Chang is the location for many important events. Many people consider the Guang Chang as the representation of the people of China’s struggle for freedom and democracy

  7. Tian Tan/Temple of Heaven The Temple of Heaven was built in 1420. It is a dignified complex of fine buildings set in gardens and surrounded by historic pine woods. It symbolises the relationship between heaven and earth, and covers over 273 hectares. The architecture is based on elaborate symbolism and numerology

  8. The Ming Tombs It was originally built as Changling, for the Emperor Zhuli and his empresses. Then, the succeeding 12 emperors all had their tombs built around it The Ming Tombs are the collective word used to describe the mausoleums of 13 emperors that lived during the Ming dynasty, 1368 - 1644 (a mausoleum is a large stately tomb).

  9. Zijin Cheng/Gu Gong/The Forbidden City The Forbidden City was built at around the same time as the Temple of Heaven. It covers 74 hectares, and it was the imperial palace at the time of the Ming and Qing dynasties. As the name might suggests, normal civilians were not allowed to enter. The main colour in the buildings was yellow, because that was the royal colour

  10. Beijing Zoo The Beijing Zoo mainly exhibits wild and rare animals in China, such as the panda (shown above) and the Golden Monkey. It holds over 7,000 animals of over 600 species It was originally named the Ten Thousand Animal Garden, but it was then changed to the name it has now
