Beijing

The 7-day tour ended in Beijing. My friend, Jade and I extended our stay in Beijing.

We stayed at the traditional courtyard house-turned-hotel (Siheyuan, 四合院). We had wanted to stay for just a night before ‘moving’ to a more economical hotel. But we liked the place and enjoyed the stay there so much that we decided to ‘pamper’ ourselves and stay for another night.
