Itinerary Details
If cycling just isn’t your cup of Chinese tea, then hop on a rickshaw at the north gate of Beihai Park, and let someone else do the hard work. Hold tight as you whiz down the winding, narrow alleys, quaintly stuck in the past. See siheyuan houses, check out the two ancient towers, or simply absorb the culture of local people. We complete our ride at Prince Gong’s Mansion, the best and most well preserved Qing Dynasty mansion.

In the summer, boat riding is a popular activity while in the winter water skiing in the lake becomes the prime sport.
