Itinerary

Day 1East Qing Tombs One-Day Private Tour

It's about 2 to 2.5-hours ride from the Beijing city to the East Qing Tombs.

The last Dynasty Qing is ruled by Manchurians from north eastern China. Their tombs are designed to overcome the splendor of the previous dynasty Ming. The stone carvings and Tibetan Buddhism reflection in the tomb of the most influential Emperor Qianlong, the unimaginable luxury in the bomb of notorious but most powerful woman Dowager Cixi, and the massive tomb robbery by warlords in1920's brought it to everyone's attention.

Longer distance than the Ming Tombs make it less visited so you will enjoy the peaceful time reading the history.
