What we can see in this tour?

1. Qianmen Street
   We'll start biking from Yongdingmen Gate. You'll first pass by Qianmen Street, a historic shopping street. As the lights come on, the street becomes even more bustling and lively.

2. Temple of Heaven
   Outside Temple of Heaven Park, you can capture the towering roof of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, its rooftop lights looking like fallen stars.

3. CITIC Tower (China Zun)
   As you pass Chang'an Avenue, you'll see the shiny, neon-lit CITIC Tower (China Zun), one of Beijing's iconic skyscrapers, in the distance.

4. Tiananmen Square
   Continuing north, you'll pass through Tiananmen Square, where you'll marvel at the majestic Tiananmen Gate Tower with Chairman Mao's portrait, along with other iconic landmarks such as the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall.

5. Jingshan Park
   Then we'll ride to Jingshan Park. At night, the pavilion at the summit lights up, and from a distance it looks almost like a lighthouse beacon, dazzling and bright.

6. the Forbidden City
   Heading further north, you can pause for photos beside the Forbidden City's grand gates, and check in at the turret of the Forbidden City — a structure at one corner of the Forbidden City's walls that shows the harmony between the palaces behind it and the surrounding moat and trees.

7. the Bell Tower and Drum Tower
   Finally, we'll arrive at Shichahai park, a lakeside area known for its vibrant nightlife. Here you'll admire the Bell Tower and Drum Tower, the twin towers that told time in ancient Beijing.

8. Shichahai Park
   Riding along the Shichahai lake, you'll come across all kinds of street snacks and speciality restaurants serving lamb hotpot and Peking Duck, as well as bars and pubs with live shows like folk music. You'll also see locals unwinding here.

Along the way, we'll also explore hutong, a kind of deep, narrow alleyway, once home to ordinary people living just outside the imperial city walls; many still have residents today.
