1, Forbidden City

The Forbidden City was built in 1420, 600 years ago. As the royal palace of Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Forbidden City is located in the center of the central axis of the whole city. It is the essence of ancient palace architecture in China, and is known as "the first of the five largest palaces in the world". There are millions of cultural relics in the collection, accounting for one-sixth of the total number of cultural relics in the country. Going to the Forbidden City on New Year's Day can better experience the Forbidden City in the snow.

2. Summer Palace

The Summer Palace is a royal garden built by Qianlong to commemorate the filial piety queen. The garden takes the West Lake as the background, imitating the gardens and scenic spots in the south of the Yangtze River. The Summer Palace on New Year's Day has a unique flavor. The Phoenix Wharf imitates Taihu Lake, Jingming Building imitates Yueyang Tower, Wang Chan Pavilion imitates Yellow Crane Tower, Houxihu Commercial Street imitates Suzhou Water Street, and Sisuo Commercial Street imitates Yangzhou 24th Bridge.

3. Badaling Great Wall

The inscription "You are not a hero until you reach the Great Wall" was erected at Badaling Great Wall, so people all over the world competed to become heroes. Although only people's heads can be seen on the walls during holidays, it still proves the reliability of ancient buildings. Badaling Great Wall is the best preserved section of the Ming Great Wall, with dangerous terrain and strong chengguan.

4. Nanluoguxiang

One of the oldest neighborhoods in Beijing preserves the largest and highest-grade chessboard-style traditional Yuan Dynasty Hutong residential area. Later, it was developed into a commercial street. The collision between history and modern culture makes it a new landmark of Beijing. Nanluoguxiang on New Year's Day is very lively.

5. Temple of Heaven

As the name implies, the Temple of Heaven is an altar for the emperor to pray to heaven. The Hall of Prayer for the New Year, the Echo Wall and the mound are all famous scenic spots in the Temple of Heaven. There are also many grandfathers in the park who take a walk and exercise in their happy old age and carry out group activities.
