SUNRISE ON A SEVENTH WONDER Exclusive Breakfast On The Great Wall Of China

The Great Wall started to come together in the third century BC on the direction of Qin Shi Huang, the ambitious emperor also responsible for building the mausoleum of the Terracotta Army outside Xian. He conceived the wall as a defence system on the northern border of the country joining together a series of earlier fortifications. The idea was taken up by successive empires and building work continued for more than a millennium; by the time of the Ming dynasty in the 17th century, the Great Wall was the world’s largest military structure.Stretching from the east coast at Shanhaiguan to the desert scrubland of the westernmost point at Jiayuguan, the Great Wall consists of walls and watchtowers, fortresses and passes – and now the most magical breakfast terrace.Set in the hills beneath The Great Wall, lies a gem of a hotel that sports numerous awards for its setting and service. The Commune Hotel has been deemed an architectural wonder, presenting itself as the perfect place to start your Asian adventure. A hotel representative will escort you on a sun-rise hike along a private pathway, leading you to your breakfast table overlooking the glorious landscapes of China. You’ll enjoy two nights at the hotel before travelling to the country’s capital, staying at the five-star Asia Hotel Beijing for another two nights. From here, you can shop and explore the capital and its iconic landmarks, such as the Summer Palace and Tiananmen Square. A remarkable and truly unique experience that is guaranteed to impress any dinner guest!
