Travel in China
Two or three days in central Beijing do the palace justice — Tian'anmen Square, the hutongs and the Temple of Heaven all ride within minutes.
Best Areas to Stay
Wangfujing (1.8 km)
The classic hotel-and-shopping quarter, an 800 m level walk from the Donghua Gate side — grand chains and effortless logistics.
Qianmen & Dashilar (2.5 km)
Restored late-Qing streetscape south of the square — courtyard hotels, roast-duck institutions and night-lit archways.
Shichahai & Nanluoguxiang (2–3 km)
Lakeside hutong quarters north of the palace — boutique courtyard inns, bars and old-Beijing flavor beside the north exit.
