Today, I’d like to introduce you to Beijing, which is a leading cultural, economic, and historical centre in China. Some of its attractions include the Palace Museum, the Temple of Heaven, the Summer Palace, and of course, the Great Wall. Beijing is celebrated around the world for the Peking Opera, and one of China’s most iconic foods, Peking Duck. It features many old neighbourhoods, called hutongs, where you can see how people have been living for hundreds of years. Of course, you can also enjoy modern architecture, such as the “Bird’s Nest”. All in all, if you can only visit one place in China, Beijing is the place to go.
