Arrive in Beijing
After settling in, consider a short Shichahai and hutong walk if arrival time permits. A late arrival remains a rest day, with the neighbourhood visit moved to a suitable later slot.
A six-day combination idea linking Beijing’s imperial architecture with Xi’an’s archaeology and ancient-city setting. Intercity travel receives its own space in the plan.
Discuss this journey

After settling in, consider a short Shichahai and hutong walk if arrival time permits. A late arrival remains a rest day, with the neighbourhood visit moved to a suitable later slot.

Focus on the Forbidden City after reservation confirmation. If energy permits, choose a garden walk or optional viewpoint in nearby Jingshan Park without adding too many major visits.

Visit a suitable open section of the Great Wall, allowing return travel and breaks. Keep the evening light ahead of the transfer day.

Use a verified rail or air connection and allow door-to-door transfer time. If timing permits, take a short Xi’an street walk after check-in.

Visit the Terracotta Army as the principal excursion, with time for interpretation and transfers. Return to the city for a relaxed evening.

Choose a short city-wall section or the pagoda area according to your onward schedule. Add a night if you want both at a slower pace.
