Our tour guide, Li Xue, was very professional and polite. Her explanations were engaging and clear, and she could describe the architecture of the Forbidden City, down to every brick and tile, in great detail, sharing many interesting stories. She also interacted with the group members during her explanations. Our family was very satisfied. I highly recommend hiring a guided tour when visiting the Forbidden City.

The scholar mentioned that Director Li led us on a tour of the Forbidden City, a treasure of human civilization. Six hundred years of history are frozen between its red walls and yellow tiles; the magnificent grandeur of the "Palace of a Thousand Palaces" speaks of the highest realm of Eastern aesthetics and wisdom. Every step is a journey through history, every glance a cultural epic. Director Li guided us through the Forbidden City with professional and in-depth explanations, cleverly planning the route, showcasing his exceptional professional skills. His words conveyed a positive historical perspective, skillfully blending knowledge with fun, allowing the children to understand the weight of six hundred years of history amidst laughter. This journey was not only a cultural baptism but also a vivid transmission of values, yielding far more than expected!

This trip to Prince Gong's Mansion was made even more special thanks to this professional and considerate guide! His explanations were incredibly insightful, covering everything from the luxurious layout of Heshen's residence and the century-long history of Prince Gong's Mansion, to the golden nanmu wood of Xijinzhai, the hidden treasures within the 88 floral windows of the rear building, and the profound meaning of "The First Blessing Under Heaven." Every architectural detail and cultural anecdote was explained meticulously, clearly dissecting the rich history of "One Prince Gong's Mansion, Half of the Qing Dynasty's History." Even more remarkable was that the explanations were anything but dry. His humorous language, coupled with vivid historical anecdotes, imbued the cold blue bricks and gray tiles with stories and warmth, captivating both the elderly and children. The pacing was perfect, neither rushing nor dragging, and he thoughtfully reminded everyone of good photo spots and to watch out for steps, patiently answering all questions. He even considered the stamina of the elderly and children in the group, finding shady spots for short rests. Following him on a tour of Prince Gong's Mansion is not just a superficial sightseeing trip, but a truly immersive experience of the mansion's cultural charm, leaving you with a wealth of knowledge and experiences. Highly recommended!
