Be picked up from your hotel and make your way to the China Millennium Monument. Dedicated to China’s long history and aspirations, the Millennium Monument commemorates the people and their country with an imposing, futuristic structure.

Next, travel to the China Central Television (CCTV) Tower, the highest building in Beijing, and take in the panoramic views from its observation deck, 780 feet (238 m) above ground. Move along to the National Grand Theater, which boasts giant concert halls, underwater corridors and garages, and a serene artificial lake.
