Beijing has a lot of great landmarks. Perfect meeting points for friends, dates and general rallying points.
Tiananmen Square is the perfect landmark. If you want to meet up with someone and need a central place located near lots of general tourist attractions, hotels and restaurants, than Tiananmen is your spot.
The gate of the Forbidden City is an excellent landmark. You'll explore history, explore culture and rally at the most important landmark in Chinese history! Nearby you'll find Qianmen Market Street, once a popular shopping area it has been refurbished to look more modern and clean.
The Village at Sanlitun is quite the landmark. You'll find it houses several amazing restaurants, bars and shopping centers. Most importantly, the Village area is surrounded by attractions. You can find a great number of the city's finest dining and drinking establishments. Ya Show, which is near the Village, is the biggest fakes market in Beijing.
Zhong Shan Park and the Summer Palace are landmarks with epic historical and cultural importance. Zhong Shan is the Imperial park behind the Forbidden City while the Summer Palace was where the Emperors of old ran off when the city got too hot.
Chao Yang Park and Hou Hai are landmark parks in Beijing that attract hundreds of people each day. Chaoyang has always been a naturally beautiful spot while Hou Hai was once where royalty strolled for pleasure.
