Would really recommend this if you want to know more about the size/structure of Beijing. The models are great and really bring the city to life. A lot of the information is in English but not all. We had great fun looking for places we...More
A very interesting exhibition that illustrates the Beijing development and urban structure till today . Recommended at the beginning of your visit . An astonishing 3 D model of the city . Also a multimedia 10 minutes film with the history of Beijing.
