Beijing, China : Princess Cruises®

Beijing, China

Enter the massive Forbidden City and wander through its 250 acres of palaces, pavilions and courtyards. Its a complex of such historic significance and grand physical scale that you'll need a few more days just to take it all in. Spend time at Tiananmen Square, the largest outdoor plaza on earth and home to Mao's Monument and Mausoleum. Not to forget one of the manmade wonders of the world - the Great Wall of China. As you climb the Great Wall, consider the efforts of nearly a million workers who walled in an empire by hand more than 2,000 years ago.
