We have 1 full day in Beijing before going on a organized tour (Tiananmen Sq, Forbidden City, Kuming Lake, Great Wall, Ming's Tomb, Temple of Heaven)
Which of these places would you recommend that we go on our 1 free day?
Someone suggested Lama Temple, Hutong Tour, Bei Hai Park during the day...
Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance


Definitely Yonghegong Lamasery (aka Lama Temple). I would pick as well Wangfujing night market and hutong tour. Or, if your tour is bringing you to only Badaling Great Wall, you might want to consider visiting another section as well.
The Kunming Lake in your tour itinerary is Summer Palace, I'm sure.
Only go to the Lama temple if you are interested in temples. A lot of people do like it but frankly it did nothing for me at all, just another temple with a huge buddha. I would say the hutongs if you aren't doing that on your other tour. Also you didn't mention any of the markets for shopping. If that isn't included on your organized tour (which would surprise me) then somewhere like Hongqiao market (beside the temple of heaven). The HouHai lake area is nice to wander around at night. Wanfujing night markets are interesting although the food there is over priced in the extreme. I always take visitors there to see it and take photos and then go somewhere else to eat.
If the free day is your first in China you could also just enjoy wandering around (the area to the west of Houhai is good for this) and getting acclimatised.

I would sugest also a visit to Jingshan Park (north of the Forbidden City) - if you are there on the weekend, it is interesting to see quite a bit of interesting activities - singing troupes, dancing classes, martial arts practice....etc. You can check out my blog with info and photos from that at Sites in Beijing, China
