Hi,

I've done a quick search (quick) and didn't find anything similar. If the topics exists, please delete this one :)

So, the question in asking - are there any interesting places around Beijing worth seeing? I'm thinking about one day trip max, even shorter ones. Something where you could see the whole city from distance? During day / night. I'm not sure it's possible since Beijing is based in flat area mostly. Or, other example, place near airport where you can see starting / landing airplanes? That one might be impossible since we're in China, but who know? ;)

You know, basically those gems worth checking out as a starters :)

Thanks,
S.
