The Forbidden City and Peking duck

FunFancie visits Beijing from Shanghai and begins at the Forbidden City, also called Gugong. She is struck by the scale of the palace and buys a traditional fan as a souvenir. Security is strict, and she compares it with her experiences elsewhere in China. The historic visit leads into a food search: she debates where to eat Peking duck and chooses a restaurant recommended by a friend. Before dinner, she tries local snacks, including a cotton-candy-like treat. At the restaurant, a caged bird keeps her company during the meal, a detail that makes the dinner memorable.

Journey to the Great Wall

The next day, FunFancie travels from Beijing to the Great Wall. She explains two options: a cheaper but longer bus ride, or the faster and more convenient high-speed train. She uses Trip.com to book and carries her passport rather than printing a ticket. She takes Beijing Subway Line 2 to Beijing North Railway Station.

At the wall, strong wind and a full cable car complicate the plan. She takes a small train up instead and sees the Great Wall's scale and surrounding views. The wind also affects her microphone, but she continues filming. She describes the experience as once in a lifetime, while joking she may not need to return. Despite the obstacles, the Great Wall remains the main goal of her Beijing trip, and she recommends it to other travelers.
