Description
FlyOver China – Beijing is an exhilarating indoor flying theatre experience located within the iconic Legend Town complex in the Shijingshan District, just west of central Beijing. Inspired by similar attractions like FlyOver Canada or Soarin’ in Disney parks, this immersive ride simulates a low-altitude flight across China’s most famous natural wonders and historic landmarks using a domed screen, suspended seating, wind effects, scents, and motion technology.
Open year-round, FlyOver China operates daily, typically from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM, though hours may vary slightly on weekends or holidays. Ticket prices generally range from ¥120 to ¥180 RMB (approx. $15–$25 USD) per person, with discounts available for children, students, seniors, and group bookings. It’s an excellent indoor option, especially during Beijing’s hot summers or cold winters, making it a flexible choice regardless of weather. You can purchase tickets at the door, but online booking is recommended, especially during peak tourist seasons like Golden Week (early October) or Chinese New Year.
The ride itself lasts around 10–15 minutes, but plan for a 30–45 minute total experience including pre-show. There are no language barriers, as the experience is largely visual with minimal narration, and multilingual guides are available. Children must meet a minimum height requirement (typically around 100 cm) and those prone to motion sickness or with heart conditions may want to avoid it. Photography and filming are prohibited during the ride, and large bags must be stored in designated lockers. Whether you’re a first-time tourist or returning traveller, FlyOver China offers a breath-taking, comfortable, and efficient way to see the country's vast beauty without leaving the city.
