Outdoors & Adventure in Beijing

Beijing is surrounded by breathtaking natural landscape. In the northwest part is the well known Great Wall, and mountains like Xiang Shan and Ba Da Chu, where people can get away from the city and breathe fresh air. To the south of Beijing are places for people to get a glimpse of the country life. Apple farms and strawberry farms are for families to pick their own fruit. Lavender farms are heaven for young romantics to celebrate their youth. All these attractions are reachable by city bus.
