Tour of Beijing
Welcome to this short tour of Beijing. In this Tian’anmen Square we are standing in the middle of Beijing. Opposite is the History Museum, a museum with lots of famous things. Go along the Chang An Street to Zhong Nan Hai. The national leaders live here. Turn right and go to the Xi Dan Street. Opposite you can see the CCTV Tower. It takes you 150 metres above the ground. You can see most of Beijing on a clear day.
When you are tired, the best way to see Beijing is by bus. You can get on a bus along the Chang An Streets. As you go along the street to the east, Tian’anmen Square is on your left.
Get off the bus at the International Hotel. Then you can see the Ancient Observatory Tower of Beijing next to a bridge. The Ancient Observatory Tower of Beijing is one of the city’s oldest buildings. It is more than one thousand years old.
