Summer Palace & Pearl Shop Half-Day Tour
Your morning begins at 8:00 AM with a hotel pickup by your local English-speaking tour guide and private driver.
First, visit the magnificent Summer Palace—China’s largest and most well-preserved imperial garden, spanning 2.9 square kilometers (1.1 sq mi), with three-quarters of its area covered in water. Dominated by the graceful Longevity Hill and the shimmering Kunming Lake, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is a masterpiece of Chinese landscape design. For centuries, it has served as both a royal retreat and a source of inspiration for Chinese horticulture, earning its nickname: “The Museum of Royal Gardens.” Stroll along lakeside promenades, admire classical pavilions, and soak in views that blend poetry, nature, and imperial grandeur.
After your exploration, enjoy a relaxed visit to a reputable Pearl Shop, where you can learn about China’s freshwater pearl cultivation and browse a curated selection of jewelry and souvenirs.
At the end of this elegant and insightful morning, you’ll be comfortably transferred back to your hotel.

Tour Reviews
The tour of Beijing was great! Our guide was very knowledgeable, and it was very interesting that he explained the historical and cultural details while showing us around the city. Witnessing the stunning view of the Great Wall, seeing the impressive works of art of the Forbidden City and wandering the streets was unforgettable. Thanks to this tour, I fell under the spell of China and definitely want to visit again!
