Buzzing, busy and breath-taking, Beijing is home to some of the World’s most incredible sights. Situated in north-eastern China, Beijing is the second largest city in China (after Shanghai) and one of the most densely populated in the world. Its history dates back over 3000 years and its longevity is clearly displayed in its plethora of remarkable sights like The Great Wall, the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, the Pearl Market and Silk Alley as well as its many stunning temples, palaces and parks.

Description
The iconic Great Wall, to the north of the city is vast – spanning five provinces and over 2500 miles! There are numerous excursions, buses and hikes which take visitors to various sections of the Wall.
The Forbidden City or Imperial Palace lies in the heart of Beijing. It is a magnificent structure with beautiful gardens, pavilions and halls which housed Ming and Qing emperors for 500 years. Just to the South of The Forbidden City is the largest square in the world, the impressive Tiananmen Square where thousands of people flock to every day. The immense square is surrounded by significant buildings including the Tiananmen Tower, Great Hall of the People, the Mao Zedong Memorial Hall, the Monument to the People’s Heroes and the National Museum.
The Temple of Heaven is a unique structure built in 1420 and is China’s largest building for religious worship. It is built within an extensive park where locals spend their time going for walks or practising Tai Chi.
For a spot of retail therapy, visit Silk Alley or the Pearl Market but be prepared for some haggling! For food lovers, you will not be disappointed with the abundance of restaurants on offer in Beijing, from top-class dining experiences to good value family-run restaurants.

I am very happy with the booking of our holiday. Kadie discussed with me our requirements - our preference for an airport and what sort of accommodation we would like and as far as I can tell she has followed it to the letter. We look forward to our trip in September

Hannah and the team did an excellent job of organising our holiday in Italy, even informing us about a train strike while we there and booking us on to a coach instead. They gave us helpful directions from the airport to the hotel. The accommodation was very good with spacious rooms, delicious breakfasts and helpful receptionists giving us directions to the city centres. All in all we had a brilliant time.

Emily was a pleasure to deal with to book our holiday - friendly, efficient, called when she said she would, changed the itinerary to suit, and even gave us some helpful tips of things to do and book in advance. 10/10 so far for sure.

I'd been searching for a multi centre holiday to Sri Lanka and the Maldives with no luck until i found eshores who asked what I was looking for and after a few days had come up with with what seems exactly what we wanted I've been dealing with Kadie who has been a great help . We don't go until November but everything so far has been 100% professional and I'd definitely use them again .
