Mysteries of Old Peking 🇨🇳

Beijing, the heart of China, is a city where ancient history and modern vibrancy collide. From the majestic Forbidden City to the tranquil Temple of Heaven, Beijing is home to some of China’s most iconic landmarks. But beyond its rich cultural heritage, the city also boasts modern architecture, bustling markets, and a thriving food scene. Whether you’re exploring its ancient palaces, strolling through its hutongs, or sampling Peking duck, Beijing offers an unforgettable experience

Captivated by the board game Mysteries of Old Peking as a child, visiting China felt like a dream come true. There was no doubt—Peking (Beijing) had to be on the list! The city lived up to every expectation, offering an incredible blend of history and modernity, tradition and innovation, mystery and gastronomy

After enjoying this incredible city, the next step was visiting the Great Wall of China — a legendary landmark that is a must-visit while in The Middle Kingdom - and I could visit it with very few people on it!
