Yul Daze lands in Beijing after a smooth high-speed rail from Inner Mongolia, settling into the compact but cozy Jianguo Hidden Hotel in Wangfujing. His first day kicks off with a food crawl through Nan Luo Gu Xiang, where he samples traditional snacks at Cha Tang Li – including the chewy Nai Juan (milk rolls) and the savory Men Ding Rou Bing. He also discovers addictive butterfly pastries at Hong Hua Dian Xin Ju, then wanders through the lively Shi Cha Hai Park before diving into a copper-pot Shuan Rou hotpot dinner at Bai Nian Qian Men Tong Guo Shuan Rou, praising the fresh meat and impeccable service. <br><br>Day two brings a guided tour of Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. Yul marvels at the scale of the imperial palace, learning about Mao's portrait, Fengshui principles, and the tragic story of Consort Zhen. He recommends a guided tour to truly appreciate the history. For lunch, a local taxi driver steers him away from touristy spots to Huang Jia Bing Jiao Xiao Yuan, where he enjoys Peking duck (with candied skin) and the surprisingly dry Zha Jiang Mian. Afternoon shopping in Sanlitun includes a stop at Gentle Monster for sunglasses adjustment and a Dubai chewy cookie at Our Bakery. <br><br>The third day is dedicated to the Mutianyu Great Wall. Yul takes a private bus package, then a chairlift up to Watchtower 6. He hikes eastbound, conquering steep steps and capturing panoramic views, before riding the toboggan down – a thrilling end to the climb. Back in the city, he explores Wangfujing Xiyue mall, buys matcha ice cream and traditional pastries, and even picks up a modern hanfu skirt. <br><br>On his final day, Yul undergoes a Hanfu makeover in Tang dynasty style and heads to Beihai Park for a self-portrait photoshoot, admitting it's harder than it looks. Famished, he visits Chai Shi Fu Hai and declares their roast duck and beef noodles the best meal of the entire trip – smoky, crispy, and succulent. He then strolls Qianmen Street for souvenirs, sending postcards from a mini post office, and wraps up with dumplings at Dumpling Xi. Throughout the vlog, Yul relies on Airalo eSIM for connectivity and shares practical tips like booking tours in advance and using Meituan for discounts. His Beijing adventure blends history, food, and modern fun with personal, honest reactions.
Yul Daze dives into Beijing's vibrant chaos, from the majestic Forbidden City to the thrilling Mutianyu Great Wall. He savors local eats, gets a Hanfu makeover at Beihai Park, and uncovers hidden gems in Nan Luo Gu Xiang. A whirlwind of history, food, and fun awaits!

The sweet potato noodles? Actually I didn't get any, but the milk rolls (Nai Juan) were chewy and tangy!
What was the best meal you had in Beijing?
The best meal of the whole trip was the roast duck and beef noodles at Chai Shi Fu Hai – super succulent and crispy.
What is Cha Tang? And what did you like best?
The 'tea soup' (Cha Tang) has no tea – it's millet paste with toppings. And the beef pie (Men Ding Rou Bing) was super juicy!
