Flight from Cagayan de Oro to Beijing

Beijing, only eclipsed by Shanghai in terms of size, is not only the political centre of China - a position it has held for more than 800 years - it also plays an important role in the nation's cultural, economic, scientific, and academic life. Located in the northwest of the North China Plain, not far from the western slopes of the Yanshan mountains, Beijing - still sometimes referred to as Peking - is a great place from which to explore this dynamic country due to its dense network of road, rail, and airline connections with other major cities.

Best time to fly from Cagayan do Oro to Beijing

The Autumn months between September and November have the best weather and fewer tourists. Without the disturbance of summer heat and winter coldness, people can always enjoy most comfortable autumn to breathe the clean airs, look out the blue sky and enjoy all kinds of outdoor activities. What's more, the autumn colour will make the city looks more attractive than usual Summer (June to August) is considered peak season, when hotels typically raise their rates and the Great Wall groans under the weight of marching tourists. And June and August are during the summer holiday for students. In Winter (December to next February), many hotels will offer substantial discounts - remember it's icy outside. If you are lucky, you will have a chance to see snow when the weather allows. The tours in Beijing in winter (except Chinese Spring Festival) is cheaper a lot compared that in other seasons.

Highlights attractions in Beijing

• The Imperial Palace - The Imperial Palace, also known as the Forbidden City, is China's most significant attraction and can trace its origins back to the Yuan Dynasty of the 13th century. Its immense size is the result of enlargements made during the Ming Dynasty between 1406 and 1420 after the capital was transferred here from Nanking. All told, this beautiful palace has been home to 24 Ming and Qing Emperors, earning its nickname of the Forbidden City due to the fact ordinary citizens weren't allowed access. The complex covers 720,000 square meters, all of it surrounded by a 10-meter-high wall with towers in the four corners and a 50-meter-wide moat, and is divided into an area used for ceremonial and administrative purposes, as well as the private quarters used by the Emperor and his concubines.
• The Great Wall of China - Beijing is only an hour away from what is undoubtedly one of the country's most famous historic structures: The Great Wall of China. Here at Badaling Pass, the first part of the wall to be opened to tourists in the 1950s, you can enjoy a walk along an impressive section of the Great Wall dating from the 16th century and standing up to eight meters high. Along the way, you'll be able to enjoy numerous towers and parapets offering superb views over the surrounding dramatic scenery. While a hilly walk, you can take a pleasant cable-car ride up to the wall. This much-visited section of the Great Wall can get busy, so if possible, try to plan your trip for early arrival, or consider signing up for a tour.
• Tiananmen Square - Tiananmen Square (the Square of Heavenly Peace) is the world's largest inner-city square, designed to hold a million people and built to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Chinese Republic in 1958. Considered the centre of communist China, the square's symbolic importance dates back to May 4th, 1919, when students demonstrated against the Chinese provisions of the Treaty of Versailles. Highlights include the Monument to the People's Heroes (Rénmín Yingxióng Jìniànbei), a 38-meter tall obelisk consisting of 17,000 pieces of granite and marble, and the splendid Tiananmen Gate - the Gate of Heavenly Peace - completed in 1417 and once the main entrance to the Imperial City.
