Beijing was one of the cities I was most looking forward to visiting in China. Over four days, I explored China's historic capital—from the Great Wall and imperial landmarks to hidden cafés, centuries-old hutongs, peaceful parks, and some of the best local food I found in China. If you're planning a trip to China, looking for a Beijing itinerary, or searching for practical China travel tips, I hope this documentary helps you experience another side of the city beyond the usual tourist attractions.
