    The Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, the Great Hall of the People, and the National Museum are all in the same area, so it's best to visit them on the same day. To hike the Great Wall, you'll need to take a high-speed train; from Qinghe Station, you can then take the subway.

      I'm planning to visit the Forbidden City, Summer Palace, and the National Museum all in one day.

        You need to tap your card when you get on the bus, and also when you get off.

            Any recommendations for a good Beijing roast duck restaurant?

              Everyone, be careful to spot the shills in the comment section!

                Taking the subway from Daxing to the Temple of Heaven – will the transfer make my legs feel like they're about to fall off, or should I just get a taxi?

                  Beijing cuisine... I'm not really used to it.

                        If you're leaning towards classic sights, I think the Summer Palace and Beihai Park are both great. Ditan Park is also nice and very relaxing/healing.

                            Don't book a Super 8 hotel.
