About Beijing:
Beijing is the capital of the People's Republic of China. It is a global city and one of the world's leading centres for culture, diplomacy, politics, finance, business and economics, education, research, language, tourism, media, sport, science and technology and transportation. As a megacity, Beijing is the second largest Chinese city by urban population after Shanghai. It is home to the headquarters of most of China's largest state-owned companies and houses the largest number of Fortune Global 500 companies in the world, as well as the world's four biggest financial institutions by total assets. It is also a major hub for the national highway, expressway, railway, and high-speed rail networks. The Beijing Capital International Airport has been the second busiest in the world by passenger traffic (Asia's busiest) since 2010, and, as of 2016, the city's subway network is the busiest and second longest in the world. The Beijing Daxing International Airport, which is the second international airport in Beijing, is the largest single-structure airport terminal in the world.

Famous Attritions in Macau
1. The Palace Museum
The Palace Museum was established in 1925 on the basis of the Forbidden City, the imperial palace of the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties.

In 1961, the State Council designated the former imperial residence as one of China's foremost-protected cultural heritage sites, and in 1987 it was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site.

The Palace Museum is also the largest and best-preserved wooden palace complex in the world. The Forbidden City is 961 meters long from north to south and 753 meters wide from east to west. It is the pride of the Chinese nation and the precious cultural heritage of all mankind. Today, the 1.12 million square meters of the Forbidden City are not only a huge treasure house for collections of Ming and Qing royal treasures, but also a vivid archive that records the history of Ming and Qing royal courts.
2. Mutianyu Great Wall
With a long history and splendid culture, Mutianyu Great Wall is 70 kilometers away from downtown Beijing, which is one of the famous Great Wall attractions in Beijing and is the essence of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty. The architecture of the Mutianyu Great Wall has a unique style, with three watch towers standing in parallel on the Zhengguan Terrace, which is rarely seen on the Great Wall. To the northwest, there are the Great Wall landscapes commonly known as "Bull's Horn", "Arrow Buckle" and " Eagle Flying Belly Up", which are treacherous and lofty like a soaring dragon. In the spring, the flowers are in full bloom; in the summer, the trees are lush and the water is gurgling; in the autumn, the leaves are red and the fruits are abundant; in the winter, the snow-capped mountains are covered in silver. Therefore, it enjoys the reputation of " Mutianyu is a unique scenery of the Great Wall" at home and abroad.

3. The Summer Palace
The Summer Palace is a vast ensemble of lakes, gardens and palaces in Beijing. Mainly dominated by Longevity Hill and Kunming Lake, it covers an expanse of 2.9 square kilometers, three-quarters of which is water. In December 1998, UNESCO included the Summer Palace on its World Heritage List. It declared the Summer Palace "a masterpiece of Chinese landscape garden design. The natural landscape of hills and open water is combined with artificial features such as pavilions, halls, palaces, temples and bridges to form a harmonious ensemble of outstanding aesthetic value".

4. Temple of Heaven (Tiantan Park)
Built in the 18th year of the Yongle era of the Ming Dynasty (1420), the Temple of Heaven was expanded and rebuilt in the Jiajing era of the Ming Dynasty and the Qianlong era of the Qing Dynasty. The architecture is magnificent and the environment is solemn.

5. Ming Tombs
Located in Changping District, 30 kilometers north of Beijing, the tomb area covers an area of about 120 square kilometers. The tombs of the Ming Emperor Zhu Di and the subsequent 12 emperors were built here. Because of its solemn and orderly overall layout, it is called the "Thirteen Ming Tombs" and was listed as a World Heritage Site in 2003. At present, there are four scenic spots open to the public. Changling Tomb, the tomb of Zhu Di, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, was built in 1409 and is one of the best preserved tombs of the Ming emperors. In particular, the Ling Si Hall, where the rituals are held, is a treasure of ancient architecture. It was made up of the precious golden-beam wood components. At present, there is an exhibition of the finest unearthed cultural relics from the Dingling Tomb in the hall. Dingling Tomb, the joint tomb of Zhu Yijun and his two empresses, is the first imperial tomb in China to be excavated according to the archaeological plan. The architecture of the underground palace of Dingling Tomb is deep and mysterious. A total of about 3,000 pieces of precious cultural relics, such as the emperor's and empress' crowns and gold and silver vessels, have been unearthed, which are rare physical materials for the study of the history of the Ming Dynasty. Zhaoling Tomb is a fully restored mausoleum according to the old site of the Ming Dynasty, which is magnificent with high pines and glorious halls.
6. Yuanmingyuan Park (Old Summer Palace)
Yuanmingyuan Ruins Park is located in the central east of Haidian District, Beijing, and is a famous patriotic education base. The park was completed in 1988, with only the landscape system, garden pattern and building foundations remaining, and the remnants of rockery and carvings still visible. In the former site of the European palace, there is a garden history exhibition hall built for people to revere.
