Begin your adventure with a private transfer to Badaling Airport. Board the helicopter and soar above the mountains to enjoy a panoramic view of the Great Wall, with its ancient bricks and beacon towers stretching for miles. After the flight, you may take photos with the helicopter.
Next, hike the Badaling Great Wall. The challenging North Path takes you up the famous Hero Slope to the North 8th Tower, offering spectacular panoramic views (5.2km, approx. 2.5 hours). The relatively gentle South Path is quieter and more suitable for families, elderly travellers and children (2.3km return, around 1 hour).
In the evening, you will head to Beijing Baijia Courtyard, located in an authentic 300-year-old Qing Dynasty princely mansion that once belonged to the prestigious Prince Li. With classic courtyards, pavilions and serene garden landscapes, it provides a highly immersive and distinctive imperial dining experience for international guests.
During your meal, you will be greeted by staff in traditional Qing court attire with elegant royal etiquette, and can also dress in imperial costumes for unique photo opportunities. Live cultural performances such as court dances and Peking Opera segments are staged throughout dinner, recreating the charm of ancient palace life.
The restaurant serves refined imperial dishes and classic Beijing specialities. Signature offerings include royal Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, braised palace-style meat, crispy duck and delicate traditional pastries, each carefully prepared and beautifully presented for an exceptional dining experience.
