Hello! I’m Nabil from EOSA, and today is my second day in Beijing. I’m really excited about today’s activities!
After a great buffet breakfast, we visited The Summer Palace (頤和園). This was the home of Empress Dowager Cixi, the mother of the emperor. Did you know her palace had China’s first electric light bulb? So cool!
In the afternoon, we went to Beijing Jianxiang School( 北京市建翔學校) to meet local students. We played games, sang, danced, and even performed sign language songs together. It was so much fun!
Later, we explored Nanluoguxiang(南鑼鼓巷步行街), a famous shopping street. I tried bingtanghulu (冰糖葫蘆) and ice cream—so yummy!
I loved today’s activities, but now I’m really tired.
