Beijing is such an attractive and exciting destination with
its history, culture, friendly people and so many great things

Games and you can imagine how popular it will be. The whole
world will be coming to Beijing and, in spite of the many hotels
in Beijing, accommodations will be short in supply. Booking

and save you money. Thirty-two of the venues for competition
venues are located in Beijing. Venues will also be in Tianjin,
Shanghai, Shenyang, Qinhuangdao and Qingdao.

Over 10,000 of the world’s best athletes will come and
participate in the greatest celebration of sports. Pre- and
post-Games festivities will abound. Beijing and all of China
will be ready to welcome all the athletes and spectators. This
unique destination and the event promise to be the most unforgettable
Summer Games ever. Be one of the fortunate ones to partake in
this celebration and experience it. Global Tours will offer
a wonderful variety of extended tours to other parts of China
that you won’t want to miss. Act early and secure your
place by making an Advance Reservation.
Beijing, the Capital of China
Beijing, a city of 12 million people with a history spanning
3,000 years, has been the capital of various kingdoms including
the Ming and Qing dynasties since the 10th century. Situated
in the same latitude as Philadelphia, it shares similar climate
patterns. While in Beijing, the must-see sights include: Temple
of Heaven (the largest royal altar to offer sacrifice for good
harvest); The Summer Palace (a 717 acre royal garden and lake);
Forbidden City (the grandest palace in the East from where emperors
ruled and ordinary men were forbidden to enter); and the Great
Wall which stretches over 6,350 km (3,946 miles) from Northeast
to West of China and took almost 2,000 years to build. Come
and experience all these amazing places for yourself.
