Composed of picturesque canals, bridges, courtyard houses, shops, and hotels, set mountains and the Simatai section of China's Great Wall as the background, Gubei becomes another spotlight for visitors in Beijing. Follow your guide to walk around the quaint architecture, enjoy the sunset if weather permits. You can also try some local snacks there as dinner on your own.

Finally, descend by cable car and take shuttle bus back to the parking lot. At 8:00 pm, your trip ends and we transfer you back to downtown hotel.
