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 cannot recommend Eshores enough. We had a fabulous member of staff 'Lynette', that organised an 8 day tour of, Rome, Florence and Venice. Flights were booked, hotels were booked and trains were booked. The hotels were wonderful and the trains so easy. We cannot thank Lynette enough for organising such a great trip.

Asked for a holiday between certain dates to Italy, Hannah was very helpful and chose 3 locations that we had asked for as a package,we felt we could do with a few more days added on which was no problem so we now have a holiday to look forward to later in the year, thanks again Hannah.

If you are looking to plan a holiday, eShores is the place to come. We have just booked a trip in Canada and Lynette could not have been more helpful. She sourced, flights, hotels, cars etc and patiently altered dates, accommodation and activities until we’d got just what we wanted. All of this with no big sales pressure or pitch just a friendly helpful manner. Can’t recommend Lynette and the company highly enough. Thank you

Kelly is simply the best. I explained the sort of holiday I was looking for and she put together an amazing experience visiting San Francisco and Hawaii. The hotels were fantastic and the travelling between islands in Hawaii was an amazing experience. I then asked Kelly to put together a trip island hopping in Greece, again the hotels were brilliant. the ferries were interesting and everything about the trip worked brilliantly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kelly and eShores
