Beijing Pt 3:, The Forbidden City, and Beihai Park

Our final stop in Beijing takes us through the Forbidden City, up to the viewpoint at Jingshan Park for a look back over the palace rooftops, along the lakeside paths of Beihai Park, and back to Houhai Lake to close out the series where it began. This is part 3 of a 3-part series filmed in Beijing in April 2025, following our first stops at the Great Wall and Temple of Heaven, and our rainy day through the hutongs and Sanlitun. Next, the trip continues in Xi'an and Pingyao, more on those soon. A slow, observational look at each place, built around narration, ambient sound, and the everyday rhythm of the streets. I hope you like the video!
