Day 1 Palace Museum: A Whisper with the Six Hundred Year Dynasty
At the beginning of dawn, as the solemn crowd passed through Tiananmen Square, the vermilion palace gate slowly opened in the flowing light of glazed tiles.
Breathing in the forbidden city: Follow the guide to avoid the crowd from the Donghua Gate. On the White Marble steps in front of the Taihe Hall, the sun slants the edges and corners of the Golden Palace. The guide said softly, "When the Qing Dynasty emperor went to court, the ministers should kneel down to the crack of the stone brick." Looking up, he saw the roof figures arranged like a frozen time, and the wind bell on the cornice sounded softly, as if he heard the palace girl's skirt sweeping the rustle of the gold brick.
Jingshan Dusk: Climbing up to the highest point of Coal Mountain, the entire Forbidden City unfolds into a golden chessboard in the twilight. In the distance, the White Pagoda reflects the North Sea, and a flock of pigeons flies past the corner tower. Old Beijing joked with Beijing dialect, "Even Puyi can't get tired of this scene
Taste Easter Egg: The crispy pastry from Four Seasons Minfu Roast Duck Restaurant dipped in white sugar is as sweet and crispy as a piece of amber bitten into pieces; The fermented sour milk made from ground mung bean wow gold in Wangfujing Snack Street is matched with a coke circle. In the sourness, there is the market soul 68 described by Lao She.
Day 2: The Great Wall: Touching the Body Temperature of History on the Dragon Ridge
In the early morning, I chartered a car and headed towards BaDaling. The mountain road circled like a green gray silk belt.
The metaphor of the Monument to Heroes: The slope of the South Tower is gentle, and countless words "Come here for a visit" are carved on the stone steps. The steep part of the North Tower requires the use of both hands and feet. As the wind pours in from the creole, the tour guide points to a piece of broken brick and says, "The names of the Ming Dynasty border guards were engraved with tears and blood
Sighs from the Thirteen Tombs: The underground palace of Dingling is cold and damp, and the golden wings and crown of Emperor Wanli in the glass cabinet shine with a cold light. The tour guide lowered his voice and said, "When the archaeological team opened the coffin in 1956, the dragon robe instantly oxidized to ashes
Night Gift: The curve of the steel structure of the Bird's Nest is dyed crimson by LED, and the Water Cube is like a melted sapphire. At the top of the Olympic Tower restaurant, overlooking Beijing like a galaxy pouring down 78.
Day 3 Summer Palace: The Empress Dowager's Human Illusion
The cruise ship on Kunming Lake breaks through the morning mist, and the lion on the Seventeen Arch Bridge awakens in the ripples.
The metaphor of a long corridor: 14000 colorful paintings stretch from "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" to "Dream of the Red Chamber". The tour guide stopped and explained, "This' Daiyu Burial Flower 'is a theme chosen by Empress Dowager Cixi herself. She often said,' Women should be like flowers, and when they bloom, they should be fully enjoyed. '
The wound of the Old Summer Palace: The White Marble stump of the Western Tower ruins points to the sky like a broken finger. The guide handed an old photo: "1860 years ago, there was a fountain for the Chinese zodiac, and the bronze animal head spit water to tell the time, which is more exquisite than Big Ben."
Pilgrimage to the University: The moonlight still lingers in the lotus pond of Tsinghua Garden, and students recite "The Back" next to the statue of Zhu Ziqing; The reflection of the Boya Tower by Weiming Lake was shattered by koi fish, and a girl in Hanfu held a "Peking University Cultural and Creative" milk tea to clock in at 46.

Day 4 Temple of Heaven: Geometric Aesthetics of Dialogue with the Gods
The Ai Ye bluestone on the Round Hill Altar emitted a cold light, and the tour guide asked everyone to stand on the Tianxin Stone and clap their hands: "Did you hear the echo? This is the 'telephone booth' where Ming and Qing emperors and heaven converse
Paradox of Nanluoguxiang: shops on the main street sell "old Beijing cheese Fried Dough Twists", and turn into Mao'er Alley, only to bump into an old man carrying a cage and walking a bird. Order a parent-child well in the Suzuki Canteen, and the tricycle driver outside the window shouts, "Tomatoes on sticks -- crispy --" with a big drum tune in Beijing rhyme
Drunken in Shichahai: Jazz music can be heard from the bar by the Silver Ingot Bridge, boatmen paddle past the former residence of Soong Ching ling, water patterns shatter neon lights, like the remnants of Peng Yuyan's flying eaves in "Evil Never Suppresses Righteousness".
Day 5 798： Art Uprising in the Steel Jungle
The gears and pipelines of the old factory have become the framework of installation art, and a certain gallery is exhibiting AI generated digital ink paintings of the Forbidden City.
Coffee philosophy: At% Arabica in front of Ullens, a barista wearing a horse face skirt pulled out a magnolia flower pattern and said, "This is using 3D printing milk froth technology, and Old Buddha can't drink it
Farewell Ceremony: Buy a silk screen print of the night view of the corner tower of the Forbidden City, with Shen Congwen's sentence printed on the back: "Autumn in Beiping is like heaven
Five day survival rules

Photography Tip: The camera position on the west side of Wanchun Pavilion in Jingshan can capture the Forbidden City and China in the same frame, with magical realism instantly dominating social media;
Avoiding pitfalls guide: Vacuum roasted duck is the biggest performance art of Beijing people. If you want to eat it, go to Da Dong and dip hawthorn cake in duck skin;
Hidden plot: There is a charity performance at the National Centre for the Performing Arts every Tuesday evening, and you can exchange your ID card for tickets to listen to "Turandot" 4.

This city is like an inverted book - the circles and squares of The Temple of Heaven are the geometric totems on the cover, the cicadas chirping in the alleys are the annotations on the title page, and the undulating curves of the Great Wall are the ancient ink marks seeping out of the binding lines. Five days is too short to write a sloppy footnote on the title page: "I have been here, and I will come again
