Hi! I am Mary Yin and I have 5 years experience in showing people of all nationalities around Beijing, and arranging excursions to the surrounding areas, the most popular being The Great Wall. My unique knowledge of the city allows me to provide my customers with an exclusive service that gives them an insight into the history behind all the sites, which has been greatly appreciated by my customers. I am able to provide a tour guide service for groups of people, or on a one to one basis if it is required.
Just to look at the sights in Beijing is an enjoyment in itself. However you get so much more when you start to understand the history behind it, plus some of the reasonings why something was built in a certain manner. For example the moat running through the Forbidden city was put there for a purpose.
