We're always happy when one of our travellers writes a review about their journey, but we loved this one
The 'Scenic' is basically the 'Great Chinese' with the inclusion of Guilin ... a place most famous for the outstandingly beautiful landscapes which surround it, and the option to take a cruise down the River Li (frankly this is really unmissable!). The whole thing adds up to an astounding experience of China – by rail and river.
If arriving to Beijing Central station* you make your own way to the hotel which is opposite the Railway station on East Chang An Street. The hotel is in the heart of the golden area of the capital, surrounded by major business centres, tourist attractions.*Please note for passengers arriving into Beijing International Airport an arrival transfer can be pre-booked.
If you haven’t pre-booked one of our city excursions today is your own to explore. During your stay in Beijing you'll certainly want to visit both the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square, these are within walking distance of the Paragon Hotel, and adjacent to each other, so this couldn't be more convenient!
