Description
Spend a magical evening blending Beijing’s mouth‑watering local cuisine, genuine everyday street‑side culture and dazzling modern city skyline.

3 Dinner Choices
‑ Peking Duck: Taste crispy golden duck skin paired with thin pancakes, fresh spring onions and sweet bean sauce. You will enjoy classic home‑style Beijing dishes favoured by local families.
‑ Hutong Sichuan Cuisine: Visit Beijing’s most renowned Sichuan restaurant located inside old hutong alleys, run by Sichuan Provincial Office. Savour bold, numbing‑spicy authentic Sichuan flavours, prepared by experienced chefs who bring genuine south‑western culinary traditions to central Beijing. This hidden spot is a well‑kept secret among local food lovers.

Enjoy thinly sliced tender lamb cooked in clean, simple broth, served with rich sesame dipping sauce — a beloved Beijing evening comfort food for generations.
After your satisfying dinner, your next stop is Ritan Park. Once an imperial altar built during the Ming Dynasty for emperors to worship the sun, today this peaceful urban park transforms into the heart of Beijing’s local after‑dark lifePromotiona.... Wander along quiet lakeside paths and watch local residents unwind after work. You are warmly welcome to simply observe, or even join in the joyful public activities. The park lake delivers breathtaking mirror‑like reflections of distant CBD skyscrapers, creating a stunning contrast between ancient park grounds and futuristic city lights.
Your night adventure continues toward Beijing CBD. Step out for photo opportunities against the spectacular illuminated skyline.
