Tourist resources in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province have been integrated on a larger regional basis and more new routes are launched recently to link the three places together.
The new routes were presented at the recent tourist co-operation conference of six places, namely Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei province in the mainland and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.
A seven-day walk on the Great Wall is perhaps one of the most attractive routes among them. The route will take tourists to the famous Badaling, Simatai section and the Juyongguan Pass in Beijing, as well as other good scenic sites, such as the Huangyaguang Great Wall in Tianjin, the Shangguan Great Wall, the Qing dynasty tomb, and the Shanghaiguan Pass in Hebei.
Most of the new routes are around seven or eight days. Some tours focus on cities while others highlight historic sites such as the Tian’anmen Square and the Forbidden City in Beijing, the cultural street in Tianjin and the Baiyangdian Lake in Hebei Province.
