Tuesday, May 26: Beijing

This morning we explore the Famous Tian’anmen Square. The size was very impressive. On our way back this afternoon we stop to see two of the most famous Olympic sites, the Bird’s Nest and Water Cube. We’ll also visit the Summer Palace, the former summer retreat for the imperial family. In the evening we enjoyed a Peking Duck in wonderful brightly decorated restaurant.  This meal is considered a national dish of China.
