There’s one moment during the day when I thought about how it must feel living in this big palace!

If you’re going to visit the Forbidden City, here are some of my tips for you ⬇️

✅ get there early even if you have the afternoon ticket. The security line is pretty long and it might take an hour or so to go through.

✅ bring an umbrella or wear a hat! There’s really no shade anywhere in the area. With that, bring enough water with you, although you could buy water inside.

✅ go through the center gates once or twice, but make sure to visit the side palaces too. They have a ton of exhibitions you can check out.

✅ reserve your ticket on the official website one week before your intended visit date!

✅ allocate the whole day to be here. The place is huuuuge 😳

Is the Forbidden City in your travel bucket list?

I didn’t know Hong Kong has so many UNESCO sites and this is one of them!

We went to visit the Tai Kwun Village. There are many buildings there but the main one you can check out is the building that used to be a prison.

Tai Kwun Village is nestled around modern skyscrapers and it used to be the police headquarters. There are 16 buildings that have been restored.

How to get to the Great Wall of China 🇨🇳 *read below*

There are so many different ways to visit the Great Wall of China and one of the closest sections to visit is the one from Beijing.

I went to the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall that’s about 1.5 hours away from Beijing city center.

Wonder how I got there? I booked a tour with Mubus through the app!

They provide roundtrip transfer, entrance ticket to the Great Wall and the roundtrip shuttle bus from the Mubus center to the entrance.

You can also choose to add-on a lunch buffet which I highly recommend so you don’t climb the Great Wall hungry 👍🏼

The Mutianyu also has 2 sides ➡️ West and East side!

I chose the West side! You have to take a cable car roundtrip. We got off on tower 14 and I climbed all the way up to tower 20.

You can also go to the East side - you take the cable car up and a toboggan ride down.

Have you been to the Great Wall of China?

I went back in time in Hong Kong 😳 Swipe to see ⬅️

I’ve mentioned before I’m a fan of visiting old houses, castles, mansions, etc. and I decided to go to the Heritage of Mei Ho House while in Hong Kong.

I believe it was one of the first public housings built in the 1950s. And if you come to visit, you get to see how the residents used to live back in the day.

And also the progress on how they renovate and extend the units to meet the residents’ needs. You can actually stay at the building as it was renovated and reopened as a hostel back in 2013.

It was free to visit and I highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

You can see China from other people’s POV but nothing will beat your own POV ✌🏼

There are so many beautiful things I saw everywhere and even though I captured some on my phone, I also remembered it through how it made me feel 💖

Idk why I’m being so sappy with this post LOL 😂 but I just never thought I would go travel back to Asia this soon and that I get to visit China 🇨🇳

I’ve only visited a few cities but I can’t wait to travel back to China soon!
