What's interesting in Beijing? What are the scenic spots worth visiting in Beijing?

My parents are old, so this trip is mainly to take them out for a walk, have a look and relax. Finally, my parents decided to come to Beijing, mainly because they came to Tiananmen Square. The older generation's admiration for Chairman Mao has made our younger generation admire it.

Their parents are farmers in the suburbs of Magic Capital, and they have never been out of the city except occasionally taking them to Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai and road trip. This time, they proposed to go to the capital of the great motherland, take the high-speed train by plane, see Tiananmen Square and see the remains of the great leaders (they classified themselves as people of Chairman Mao's era), so I offered to accompany them. I advocate that the parents charge AA system is no problem. That's what parents do. They always don't want to burden their children.

Ok, then get ready to travel. If it is not convenient to join the group, you can stop freely. Just after the end of the semester, my daughter returned to China, so she passed by her peers and could take a day off to meet the children studying in Beijing.

This is the origin of "dragging the old with the young" to visit Beijing. "Young" is not "young", but parents are really old!

Tiananmen Square in the Night

May/Sunday, Kloc-0/4 1

At 7: 55 in the morning, the two teams met at Mahongqiao Airport, and their parents were sent by their eldest brother. However, the security check at the airport is quite "in place". When my parents came to the airport for the first time, they had to face such a "search" of taking off their shoes and belts. Really busy. Therefore, the "political background" of this trip has been made clear. Beijing is holding a "Belt and Road" conference.

Flying from Hongqiao to Beijing for 2 hours basically landed on time. Of course, during the flight, the old people scrambled to look down at the earth, shouting that they could still see the house, and then arguing about the direction on the white clouds. The feeling of blocked ears when taking off has just passed. When I landed, I had to cover my ears with my hands and "toss" all the way.

In mid-April and early May, I tried to book air tickets twice, but I was scared away by the dust and flying sand in Beijing. On this day, 10 landed at Beijing Capital Airport. I am in a good mood. The sky is so blue and white clouds are floating! It is said that every time a meeting is held in Beijing, the weather will be good enough to really catch up!

The sky in Beijing is still blue.

This taxi goes to Beijing Hotel. I arranged to live in Chang 'an Avenue so that I could visit the night scene of Chang 'an Avenue and watch the flag raising the next day. I have a good plan!

At first, the highway was smooth, and the traffic jam started here. The roses in the green bushes were in full bloom, and my father began to turn on Xiaomi's mobile phone to take pictures. I was just learning English.

"One Belt, One Road" conference, three steps and one post, ten meters and one whistle on the road! There are blue policemen, green soldiers, black secret service personnel and volunteers with red signs on their arms everywhere. Chang 'an Street is under traffic control. This situation has also taught us a lot. Of course, our travel is also affected.

Soldiers are everywhere.

He said that the hotel room was tense, so he checked his luggage and walked out of the hotel before he packed it.

Turn left to Wangfujing Street. This famous Wangfujing Street is really nothing special. It's close to Chang 'an Avenue, and the subway exit is probably there. Surrounded by high walls, it doesn't feel lively at all. /kloc-More than 0/5 years ago, the company I worked for once set up a brand counter in the new China children's products store, and the whole world has changed, completely changed.

We went to a comprehensive shopping mall, found hangzhou dishes's "alley" in the dining area on the 6th floor, and had a casual meal. A few steps after dinner is the famous Wangfujing snack street. Unfortunately, we middle-aged and elderly people don't like it.

Wangfujing snack street

After a short rest, my parents and I walked to Tiananmen Square.

Chang 'an Avenue is very empty, and there are very few vehicles coming and going, probably all traffic control. The street trees are not high, and the police and volunteers are sheltering from the rain in twos and threes. At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the sun shone directly overhead. It's really hot.

The three of us didn't walk a few steps when a policeman in blue came over and asked to check my father's ID card. My mother handed it to me quickly. He put his ID card under the machine for inspection.

Not far along the red wall, enter the Tiananmen security checkpoint. I haven't been to Beijing for five or six years. I haven't been to Tiananmen Square since 2002. When I entered Tiananmen Square, I didn't know there was a security check. I thought it was because of the "Belt and Road", so the security measures were very strict. The waiting line is a bit long. They are all married people with children and speak various dialects from all over the world. Some of them are very old. They want to come, just like their parents, but they want to see the capital of the great motherland with their own eyes.

The security check delayed the time, and my father wanted to go to the tower. After passing the security check, he quickly walked across Jinshui Bridge without even taking a group photo with Tiananmen Tower as the background. When I was waiting in line, I heard that the tower was cleared at 3: 30. Sure enough, there was not enough time to enter the Forbidden City, so I had to take pictures at the meridian gate in front of the Forbidden City. The mobile lines here are designed to allow access only, so we can't go back to Tiananmen Gate. So we came out of Xihuamen and walked along the moat, hoping to circle Tiananmen Square again.

The moat is full of blue waves and willows, which makes people relaxed and happy. White clouds are floating in the blue sky, and golden glazed tiles are stuck on the red wall. The tall gray walls of the Forbidden City finally saw these scenes on TV. My parents are very happy.

Urban moat

This ginkgo tree will turn golden in autumn. It must be beautiful.

Go to the intersection of Xihuamen Street and Nanchang Street. I didn't expect Nanchang Street to be blocked again, so I couldn't go. So I had to go back, through Xihuamen, through Wumen, and then go to Donghuamen. Well, I saw the layout of the Forbidden City wall. The moat, willows and even green camp soldiers of the army stood guard in the same position. To the west is Zhongshan Park, and to the east is the Working People's Cultural Palace. Great design.

People walk and walk. When I arrived at Wang Hongbin Street, the soles of my shoes were really hard. I found a mobike. Not long after riding, East Chang 'an Avenue is just ahead. I thought I could walk back to Tiananmen Square, so I rode there and let my parents walk slowly. I didn't expect that not only bicycles couldn't get through, but even people were controlled to flow or divert and were asked to wait in place.

It will be released in about a quarter of an hour. We passed the check-in point and reached Chang 'an Avenue in a few steps, but we were not allowed to go west! You can only cross the street eastward, but East Chang 'an Avenue is not allowed. You must come out of Changpuhe Park and walk along Nanhe Street before you can walk to Beijing Hotel. Along the main street, the VIP building, Golden Hall and Beijing Hotel stand next to each other in turn, and the parking lot is full of black limousines and Beijing Shouqi vans. We came just in time!

Back to my room, I agreed to let my daughter choose a delicious one, and then I went out to eat the roast duck that people in Four Seasons were happy with.

My mother has a toothache and a bad stomach. She can only sigh at such a delicious meal. She eats duck soup dough and can't bite it. My poor mother.

After dinner, we walked slowly back. My daughter suggested that we ride Chang 'an Avenue at night, and grandparents can wander around or watch the night view of Tiananmen Square at will. I didn't expect my parents to walk to Chang 'an Avenue or be prevented from walking westward to Tiananmen Square. The leaders haven't dispersed yet, and they have to go back to the hotel to wash and rest.

I'm tired, too, but it's really hard to think that my mother and daughter will go to Tiananmen Square by bike at night! So we crossed Chang 'an Avenue in tandem and rode on the wooded road of justice. Two years ago, after my daughter arrived at the Beijing Ministry of Public Security Hotel, she turned right to Qianmen East Street and the west side of the square, put her bike away and asked a policeman if there was any traffic control tomorrow. Can we go to see the flag-raising in the morning?

The police said humorously that martial law would be imposed tomorrow. Please change to the peripheral attractions and stop!

Confirm once again that Chairman Mao Memorial Hall is under renovation, and it will not open until September 1! It's a pity that parents can't see the body of this great leader.

We passed the security checkpoint in the southeast corner of Tiananmen Square again, and there was no one in the distance. My daughter said that the opportunity was rare and she took many photos. The soldiers on guard stood up like stone statues.

Night view of Tiananmen Square

After the meeting, many CMB of Beijing FAW

There are more and more vehicles on Chang 'an Avenue at once. My daughter said to find a bike quickly, so we crossed Chang 'an Avenue, found a bike on Wang Hongbin Street, and rode west to Tiananmen Gate. Many young people also rode bicycles and photographed the night scene here as a souvenir. But we were still not allowed to stay in the central position, and the security guard shouted for you to leave.

When we rode to Nanchang Street, we crossed West Chang 'an Street and turned back to the east. My daughter took pictures of me back and forth, and we rode non-stop until we got back to the hotel.

Riding on the wide Chang 'an Avenue under the light is really a wonderful experience.

Monday, May 15, Day 2

I also thought that they are used to getting up early, or they may go to the street they passed last night for breakfast. Unexpectedly, many shops closed at 6: 30 in the morning. It is said that because of the meeting, the small shops in the second ring road are not allowed to open.

Take them along the south river. In 38 yuan, where everyone eats a buffet, the old man turns around and leaves. I found another restaurant and ate porridge and steamed buns for three people. I also brought my daughter two buns and an egg, which I spent in 43 yuan. They say this is the most satisfying way to eat.

Back to my room, I asked my daughter to pack up and check out. I took the old man and the old woman to the Yuanmingyuan by subway. On this trip, I prepared diapers for my father. After reading the introduction of the fairy tale king Zheng, I gave my father a suggestion. My father said he was well dressed.

At Wangfujing Station, just outside Beijing Hotel, there is a security checkpoint. Luggage, people and water were spared.

Beijing subway route map

We changed from subway 1 line to subway line 4, and it took us an hour to get there. The subway in Beijing has a long history, and there are few escalators, so everyone needs to go up and down the stairs. It's not crowded, it's past the morning rush hour, but, however, all the young people are sitting calmly, and no one lets them sit! People in this capital have lost their mentality of being old, old and old. Are they numb by the depressed life?

Beijing's subways extend in all directions. As long as you have patience and physical strength, you can freely touch every corner of Beijing by subway. However, for older people, forget it.

I have never been to Yuanmingyuan. My daughter said that there are stone pillar sites, which will be even more shocking. Old people don't need tickets, and parents are very happy. After entering the park, we watched the introduced movies first, and then followed the crowd all the way. I saw the exhibition of the zodiac, went to the Dashuifa site and studied it carefully. It was really shocking. My father took many photos. This is indeed a historical relic.

Some tourists always climb over the fence to take pictures. A security guard sternly condemned in Beijing dialect: this is the legacy left by our ancestors and a national humiliation. You ruined everything you wanted to leave to future generations to educate them not to forget national humiliation. How do you explain it to future generations?

Indeed, I can't understand. Do I have to take photos so close to these historical stones to show that I am here? Bad habits.

Mom still has a toothache, so we sit under the tree and have a rest and drink some water.

Then I saw the west building and the locust trees at both ends of the maze, which was impressive. I like trees and stand on dry land, but I have such green hope!

The dilapidated Summer Palace

The tour guide said that the whole garden used to be barren and the trees were planted after liberation. The "Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens" in the prosperous East in the past cannot be reproduced again.

Mom has a toothache. It's slow to sit down and eat cookies. She still has to find someone with soup and food. So I walked around the garden, but I didn't go to the area west of Fuhai. I found a shop and ate 1: 1. Dad said, "Black Heart", a tomato 1: 1 rice and a tasteless soup. I want 45 yuan.

We change from Line 4 to Line 1 and go back to the hotel, waiting for our daughter to come back. My daughter slept in the morning, bought a transportation card at a subway station not far away, and then went to imperial academy. Unfortunately, she doesn't have enough cash on her to look out the door. I'm sorry. It's okay. You kids will have another chance.

Imperial college/college

There is traffic control on Chang 'an Avenue again. Ask the hotel to call a taxi. Tell me it's hard to make a phone call. What should I do? I have to take the subway. This is my fault. I shouldn't let my parents follow me on the subway. 1 Line stops at Dongdan and Line 5 stops at C.

At first, I planned to live in Chang 'an Avenue on the first night, so that I could watch the flag-raising ceremony near Tiananmen Square and the next morning. I lived in short rent's apartment the next night and used this platform for the first time. Mainly because my parents are old, it is uncomfortable to eat out every day. I originally planned to play until May 19, and the time was longer. So living in a place like this can make some rice porridge and they can get used to it. Of course, the cost performance is also relatively high, which satisfies the parents' mentality of not spending money indiscriminately.

After dinner, my daughter asked me to go out for a bike ride.

They went to Shuangjing Station by bus. It turns out that the whole station from Guangqumen to Shuangjing Station is a residential area of RF City, separated by roads and divided into several districts. Later, we rode big shorts to the CCTV building.

Cctv building

Riding farther and farther, I really didn't have the strength to ride back to my residence, so I took the subway to Shuangjing at Jintai Zhao Qian Station on the 10 line. The name of this station is really special!

Tuesday, May 65438+Day 3, 06

I woke up naturally in the morning and finally slept well. My parents have gone out to buy ribs and said they would make a soup. I'm still not sure if my mother can stand going to Badaling Great Wall by bus for four hours, so I decided to wait and see. Today, I plan to go to the Forbidden City after breakfast and lunch.

The house in short rent has been booked for three nights: 15, 16, 17, and cannot be returned. My mother didn't want to play for another day, so she decided to take the 18 high-speed train home. They told me to buy a train ticket quickly. I entered my parents' identity information on 12306, but it is grayed out. I can't find their names and place an order. When I asked my daughter again, she thought for a moment and said that it was because her grandparents had never checked their ID cards at the scene of buying tickets and bought train tickets, so they could not buy them online. Now they can only buy at the train ticket sales window. Yes, the nearest point of sale is also more than 900 meters away. Ok, let's get started right away.

We went to Shuangjing Station by bus and bought a good ticket at a small sales point. Please note that you can't buy train tickets by credit card. My daughter said that she would buy some sliced bread for my grandmother. It's softer and she can eat it. Back to my parents' place of residence, I finally have hope. I am very happy to take the high-speed train home in May 18+02: 25.

After lunch, I sent my daughter downstairs. She made an appointment to meet her classmates in Xidan.

We called a taxi on Didi, and the three of us went straight to the Forbidden City. Why didn't you think of Didi yesterday? But according to the driver, taxis can't get on Chang 'an Avenue, let alone traffic control, and no one likes to do business there. Ok, let's call a taxi in the future. It seems a little paranoid to raise your hand and ask for a car on the road.

Taxi drivers are really talkative, driving with one hand and playing Allegro with the other! From big leaders to ordinary people, and then to Liu Laogen (Qianmen East Road), it seems that Uncle Benshan knows the whole capital like the back of his hand.

The driver dropped us off at Xihua Gate of the Forbidden City on Nanchang Street. My father made it clear that the driver told us to make a detour. We are from the east, so he should stop at Donghuamen. Isn't it close? I thought he was right, but I didn't want to make things unpleasant, so I didn't say anything. I even rewarded the driver with 2 yuan for gas. The driver said all the way, and your old man smiled. Forget it.

/kloc-In the afternoon of May, 0/4, we came out of Xihuamen along the moat and were stopped here. We are not allowed to go back to Tiananmen Gate via Nanchang Street. Today we are here again! Ok, let's go again and impress our parents on the wall of the Forbidden City.

Look, Brother Bing is still patrolling.

Uncle policeman by the moat.

I hurried to the ticket office of the Forbidden City to buy a ticket and asked me how to get to Tiananmen Gate. The conductor taught me how to do it, but actually there is still only one-way street from Tiananmen Gate to the Forbidden City. To go to Tiananmen Gate, I have to go back to Chang 'an Avenue and pass the security check before I can get in. Well, if we let the driver drop us off at the gate of Nanchang Street in West Chang 'an Street, we can go to Tiananmen Gate first, but now we have to go to the Forbidden City and walk for three hours. There seems to be no hope of going to Tiananmen Gate again.

My parents are very happy to be in the Forbidden City. All the doors of the temple were blocked by fences. To see what's in the main hall, you have to squeeze in, that is, look at the outline of the building. I borrowed the player and wanted my father to listen to it, but he was taking pictures all the way and arguing with me about the way. I saw several halls and palaces in the east, but I didn't see the bell hall of the Jubao Hall. Unfortunately, my father always pushes me forward.

Imperial capital

All the way to Shenwumen, my mother said, hey, there are many people in that pavilion. By the way, it's Jingshan Park. I can't climb up, so I can't go.

Seeing that the direction of the tourist special line 1 was Tiananmen Square, I swiped my traffic card and got on the bus. I have no experience either. It was full of people, most of the passengers were tourists, and no old man got up and gave up his seat! I found a child occupying a seat, so I asked the young woman next to me if I could hold the child and let my mother sit down. She nodded in agreement, and then the husband in the back seat got up and let my mother sit, and he sat in the child's seat himself. Hehe, thank him for giving his seat to me and the children.

It's actually quite silly. The three of us swiped 30 yuan's personal transportation card and could take a taxi to Tiananmen Square at any time. However, in this central position, we really can't get a taxi.

Originally, I wanted to take this sightseeing bus to my destination, and then I bought a ticket to go back, so that I could be regarded as sightseeing all the way. When we arrived at Tiananmen Square, my father said why we should get off and get off quickly. It turns out that he is right.

Finally, I took a photo in front of Tiananmen Square! Rushed in again, asked, bought tickets, and 70 tickets were free for the elderly. I told them to go to the tower first, I delivered the bag, and then went upstairs to find them.

They have already taken photos on the tower, saying that the ticket inspector asked them if they came by themselves and if they had any family.

An unexpected gain made them happy, but they thought they could never do it again. For them, climbing the gate overlooking the buildings in Tiananmen Square is more meaningful than visiting the treasures of the Forbidden City.

Tian'anmen Gate Tower

Go to the tower to get your checked baggage. When I saw a boiling water room, I took out my mother's thermos cup in my bag and begged people to fill it with hot water, bought bottled water, warmed up, and sat on a stone bench to drink water and eat bread. Seeing the flags and signs nearby, I took a picture of them all.

Then go to Donghuamen, go straight to Beichi Street, and want to call a taxi. It screamed everywhere, but it was useless. My daughter called to say that her classmates would come to see us. I invited her to dinner, but she didn't come, so I decided to go to our respective homes.

I called the Didi special car and will be right with you! He is a young man and very talkative. He said the taxi wouldn't pick you up, otherwise the price would start from the floor. How can they strictly manage their cars? He said that there are more than 60 parents here, and their children are going to primary school soon. There is no way. He just bought a school district house in Daxing District, covering an area of over 40,000 square meters. It takes 30 years to repay the mortgage of 1 10,000 yuan every month. After listening to your parents' sighs, you are from the suburbs of Beijing, and there will be demolition. Take it apart. Why did you tear it down so soon? Even if it is torn down and lost, it belongs to the parents. People should make money by their own efforts, not by their ancestors. This young man is very thoughtful.

Back to the residence, my daughter came back soon, and my father happily burned loofah, scrambled eggs and winter melon soup. After dinner, I decided to give up going to the Great Wall. After sitting on the bus for so long, I'm afraid my mother will be in trouble if her cervical vertebra is uncomfortable and dizzy, so I'm going to go out later tomorrow and go to the nearby Tiantan Park, so I won't be tired.

The public security management in this community is not bad. People swipe their cards in and out. Security won't help you, and won't just let people in. The decoration of the corridor is also good When it was first built, it should be regarded as the standard of fine decoration. However, the property management is relatively extensive, the doors of all kinds of equipment in the corridor are open, and bicycles and strollers are parked at will.

My daughter's room faces the entrance downstairs. The ticking of people coming in and out.

After 1 p.m., all four of them rented the East Gate of the Temple of Heaven. Indeed, if there is a comparison, you will find that the service of ordinary taxis is really much worse than that of private cars! When you get to that place, I think I'll throw you away.

The Temple of Heaven feels old, and you can see the local old men and women waving flags and shouting inside. The ancient buildings in China are really amazing. The roof, beams and thick and tall columns are all tenon-mortise structures. The color of the inner roof is colorful, complicated and amazing.

I visited several places, killed sacrifices and chefs, and then entered the Temple of Heaven, which was also a bit shocking (no cultural bitterness, only consternation). The white marble pillars in the Temple of Heaven are particularly white, and the blue glass roof of the Hall of Prayer for the New Year is sacred and majestic. I heard in the video materials that "worshipping God" is actually the basic common sense of being born as a human being and respecting heaven and loving others.

Temple of Heaven

And then to the echo wall. When I was a child, I saw someone screaming at a wall on TV. Another person heard it and came back. Sorry, it's not available now. There is an iron fence about 60 cm away from the wall. You can't even touch the wall, let alone try to shout. There are faint scratches on the wall, which seem to be names. Maybe our people always want to leave another brilliant footprint here, which will isolate the echo wall from others?

Echo Wall

The ball stands in the center.

The weather is very hot, 37 degrees. Let's go to the south gate and sit down and have a rest. I saw a group of tour groups come in. Many old people, some of whom look older than their parents, are really agile.

Out of the gate, Didi bus went straight to RF "four generations under one roof".

Famous food stores in Kyoto

This hotel is a bit interesting, with Beijing cuisine, guzheng and drum performance. There is also a warning in a prominent position: Don't talk about state affairs! It can be seen how eager Beijingers are to be responsible for the rise and fall of the country. We Shanghainese are all petty bourgeoisie.

The man on the right stands guard.

I swept the car and rode to the station, passing by the Ming city wall, dancing and kicking shuttlecock, which was very lively. Happy people.

When I returned to my residence, my parents didn't sleep, so my daughter downloaded WeChat for them and sent their photos to each other's mobile phones.

Wednesday, May 65438+Day 4, 07

My parents got up at 5: 30 in the morning, and I got up early, because I knew they would be excited to get up early, but I dared to stay in bed!

Mother and daughter are fooling around. They asked to leave at 9 o'clock, so I informed the landlord to check out at 9 o'clock in advance and made an appointment to arrive at 10 9 o'clock.

Unexpectedly, until 9: 05, before the landlord arrived, my father began to blame me again, saying that I had booked the car before I arrived. What's this called? I shouted that the high-speed rail couldn't catch up. If I retire and call to wait for the bus, he calls again and says, why didn't I call in advance?

Fortunately, I finally got on the bus. The driver can also talk about the house, saying that his cousin and his wife are both graduate students and doctors, and they are similar to department-level cadres in a national unit. They still can't afford to buy a house with an annual income of more than 400 thousand, and have been waiting. The more you wait, the more you can't afford it. Now they are waiting for the country to grant a doctor of senior intellectuals a similar house, about 30,000 yuan per square meter, which is far from the suburbs.

The house again!

Thursday, May 65438+Day 5, 08

Parents are really old. They can't stand the toss physically, but they still don't agree with their old age ideologically. They will argue with the people closest to them. It is torture to be patient and have a good face to face them. But on such a party day, everyone knows that there is one day missing. When recording this trip, I looked at the photos these days again, but I still felt that I didn't take enough photos, or I wasn't prepared enough, or I didn't care about my parents.

Five-day trip, flying by high-speed rail, the weather is excellent. I went to these places: Tiananmen Gate, Forbidden City, Yuanmingyuan, Temple of Heaven, and even the Great Wall. Because my mother has a toothache and a bad cervical vertebra, I dare not go. There are also the Summer Palace, Gongwangfu and Yandao Xie Jie. They haven't been there. The Great Leader Memorial Hall is under repair. Unfortunately, they haven't been there.

1. Make full preparations in advance. Give your parents a briefing before you leave, including the itinerary, the historical background and scenic spots, and the opening and closing time of the museum. You should sit down and make a travel plan with your parents, and discuss what is necessary and what is movable. It's best to go to the places you've been to and learn about local attractions, accommodation, tourism and so on. This is the ideal. However, even if you have been to a place, you still have to do your homework and give a briefing before you go out.

Pay special attention to diet when traveling. Eat when the old man arrives, and eat when he is used to it. They stopped being stingy with their children and went out. No matter how good the fish and meat are, I dare not eat them at all. I am afraid they will go bad, I can't find medicine, and I feel uncomfortable, which will affect my trip.

In terms of transportation, the subway for the elderly is still free. It is recommended to mainly use the drip car, which can respond everywhere and has good service, although the price is more expensive;

4, change, to bring, 5 yuan, 10 yuan, 20 yuan, 50 yuan, 100 yuan, each take one, put it on your parents, not much;

5. Pay great attention to the living environment. The most important thing is 100% silence. Is there a good restaurant near here?

6. Essential drugs

7. Beijing is the capital of China, and there are some big meetings from time to time. It is recommended to watch more news before going out in the future, otherwise all aspects of traffic will be very inconvenient.

Middle-aged friends, if you read this article, if you want to take your parents on a trip, then I will send you another sentence: make good use of the morning!
