We need all passengers' names and passport numbers to make a reservation to enter Tiananmen square. Please send all passengers' full names and passport numbers to us after you book this tour.

You will walk around the whole Tian'anmen square accompanied by professional English guide during the1.5 hours. Listen to the stories about tiananmen square from your guide throughout the entire journey.

Tiananmen Square the largest public square of this kind in the world. Located in the heart of Beijing City, it is the site for massive parades and rallies. 

This was the site when in 1949, from a rostrum on Tiananmen (the Gate of Heavenly Peace), Chairman Mao proclaimed the establishment of the People's Republic of China. For security reason, Tiananmen Square is a fenced square circled by low iron grids with main four entrances – east, west, south and north. The square is now open to the public till midnight, but all the tourists have to pass a security check before they enter the square. So check points have been set up at all the entrances leading to the square.

The visit allows you to have a glimpse at the outside of Memorial Hall of Chairman Mao, the Monument to the People's Heroes, the magnificent Great Hall of the People, the National Museum of China, the ancient Zhengyang Gate and Arrow Tower as well as the Tiananmen Tower which leads to the well-known Forbidden City.

Our tour will be finished at 9:30a.m in the Tian'anmen Square
