This is certainly one of the most famous sites, not just in China, but in the world, and coming to China and not seeing this attraction would be remiss.
You should also make sure that while you are in this part of the country that you visit the 2008 Olympic Stadium. Once you have explored this you can enjoy a fantastic Chinese meal nearby and perhaps do some shopping in the local pearl market.
