Beihai Park

We had a fantastic tour visiting the Temple of Heaven, Prince Gong Residence, and other spots. The tour is conducted entirely in Chinese. Our tour guide, Shu Lei, was exceptional throughout the entire day. ​He is extremely knowledgeable about the history and cultural significance of every site we visited, offering rich stories and context that made the history truly come alive. Beyond his deep expertise, Shu Lei was incredibly thoughtful, attentive, and caring towards the elderly members of our group. He maintained a comfortable, considerate pace and made sure everyone felt safe, well taken care of, and included at every step. ​Everything was smooth, well-organized, and thoroughly enjoyable. I highly recommend booking a tour with Shu Lei if you want an informative, seamless, and warm experience!

Този парк е красив и огромен. Но времето е много горещо през лятото, освен това е доста приятно да се разхождате в парка.

Таксито нямаше право да минава по улицата, на която се намираше магазинът, но беше само на 1 минута пеша от главния път. Дойдох рано сутринта, около 9 часа, и успях да започна веднага. Сестрите в магазина бяха много мили и използвахме приложение за преводи. Имаше много ханфу, от които да избирам, а персоналът беше търпелив, докато избирах. Гримът ми беше блед, но подхождаше на стила/епохата. Включваше също мигли и прическа. Беше изключително горещо и ханфуто беше толкова топло. Осигурени бяха билети за вход в парка Бейхай и успях да се срещна с фотографа. Той беше страхотен, ентусиазиран и ми помогна да позирам. Хареса ми мястото на снимките, тъй като беше (малко) по-малко пренаселено. Снимките бяха предоставени веднага – имаше над 30, след което можех да избера 5 за редактиране, които също бяха предоставени в рамките на няколко дни. Страхотно обслужване :)

Nancy and her team did an amazing job with our styling and makeup! 💄✨ Nancy was there throughout the entire process to help translate our preferences directly to her team. We chose a natural makeup look, and they absolutely delivered! We were even stopped multiple times by locals and tourists who wanted to take photos with us! 🤪 Rather than doing our photoshoot at the Forbidden City, we chose the Temple of Heaven because it’s much less crowded and has better photo spots in my opinion. 🏛️🌿 Pro-tip: We highly recommend going early! We were the only ones getting styled at that time, so Nancy’s team could focus solely on us, and we had all the time we needed to pick out our perfect Hanfu. 👑💯

I had a really great time! I booked the Starry Night ticket, which included a drink and a game where I won a souvenir! The park isn't very big, but it's very pretty, and the atmosphere is magical!

The guide, Linda, was organized and constantly aware of not losing the group, giving us enough time for the entire group to arrive at each stop before offering her recounting on the significance of each building, relic or historical artifact. She spoke clearly and coherently, adding a touch of humour, always with a smile. The tour was well paced, not too hectic, despite the scale and depth of what was covered. Definitely worth your money!

Наистина много ни хареса цялото преживяване от обиколката, тъй като нашият гид Алън беше супер весел, въпреки че трябваше да преминем през обиколката в един от най-горещите дни в Пекин. Направихме си наистина хубави снимки и получихме препоръки в Забранения град. Между другото, моля, елате добре подготвени с удобни обувки за ходене, слънцезащитен крем, шапка/чадър, ако възнамерявате да направите тази обиколка през летните месеци, тъй като ще прекарате поне 30 минути в преминаване през проверката за сигурност под слънцето.

This was an amazing tour with so many interesting sights seen. Helen made it so memorable with her great story telling and jokes, she also assisted us in getting into the areas faster than everyone else which was a huge plus. It is great value for money too as everything is included, all you do is pay and rock up and you’re set. Cold water is provided and the pace can be either fast or slow depending on what you like. Helen gave us the option to stop and take photos or go to the next spot which i really appreciated as i don’t like to waffle around. 100% recommend to anyone visiting beijing

I highly recommend this one if youre gonna go to The Forbidden City. The place was huge and you will be needing a guide to explore and learn about its history. Our guide Peter was all out hands on to us. Sharing the history and answering our question about the place. He was willing to help us take a photo as well.
