- After lunch, we'll drive to the Lugou Bridge (Marco Polo Bridge). Located on the Yongding River in Fengtai District, Beijing, the Lugou Bridge is not only the oldest existing stone arch bridge in Beijing, but also the starting point of the full-scale outbreak of the Second Sino-Japanese War.

After the tour, return to your accommodation or continue with other activities.
