If we can lower your expectations, the Beijing Planning Exhibition Center is worth a visit, especially if you're already near Qianmen anyway and don't have any time constraint. Do not, however, plan to visit this instead of the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square itself, or the Mao Zedong Mausoleum.

On the third floor, the most interesting floor, you'll find a huge miniature model of the city, from the CBD to Sanlitun to the hutongs and the Olympic Park. This is pretty cool.

The rest of the exhibition is a little dull, and not worth much time.
