August 16th is a day worth looking forward to. On that day, I will go to Beijing to participate in the KODU National Competition. The day before I left, I dreamed that because my KODU works were so good that when I arrived at the competition site, other contestants would say "Wow!!" A sound. But before I could dream what would happen next, my mother woke me up. I looked out the window. It was still dark outside, but since we had to arrive at the airport before 8:30, we had to get up early.

By the time we got dressed, it was already six o'clock, so we quickly went downstairs and went to the rice noodle shop downstairs. The rice flour at home is very delicious. Their flour is ground very finely. As soon as it enters the mouth, it flows into the stomach from the throat like water. As long as you inhale this rice flour gently, you will eat it all up.

After breakfast, we took a taxi at the intersection of the road. After waiting for a long time, the car finally arrived.

When we arrived at the Capital Airport, we immediately met with the teacher and the others, so I picked up my ticket again. Through my understanding, I had a general understanding of the process and precautions for flying. We got on the plane. I was a little nervous at first, but gradually it disappeared. The plane took off immediately, and I fell asleep. When I opened my eyes again, we were almost arriving at the Capital Airport, and it was just in time for lunch. After lunch, the plane was about to land. I saw the plane circling around the Capital Airport several times. From the plane, I could see the whole of Beijing City.

Arriving at Beijing Capital Airport, we took a bus to our Qihang International Hotel.

After signing in, we were ready to go to Tiananmen Square. Before coming to Tiananmen Square again, I collected a lot of information. I knew: Tiananmen Square recorded the indomitable revolutionary spirit and fearless heroism of the Chinese people. The May 4th Movement, the December 9th Movement, and the May 20th Movement were all here. It left a strong color for the history of China's modern revolution. It was also the site of countless major political and historical events, and a historical witness of China's decline to rise.

Then we came to Dazhalan. There were many delicious foods in Dazhalan, including Internet celebrity Coke and mutton kebabs. But we only ate mutton kebabs, but this mutton kebabs seemed to be fake and were not delicious at all, but the fried noodles there were okay.

We got up quite early the next day. At this time, I just wanted to say one thing: "Let people live!!" After breakfast, we got on the familiar vehicle and came to the National Zoological Museum. I had learned about the National Zoological Museum before. The National Zoological Museum is recognized in the world as the largest animal system in Asia, with the highest research level, and the strongest comprehensive strength. The Research Center for Animal System Classification and Evolution also draws on the theme display method of modern museums, adopts multi-disciplinary knowledge such as natural sciences and humanities to embody the theme, and introduces high-tech audio-visual facilities such as 4D motion cinema. Make profound scientific philosophy more approachable. It opened in 2009 and held a wildlife photography exhibition. The exhibition is divided into three parts: birds, insects and African wildlife, making it a grand event for photography enthusiasts in Beijing.

In the museum, most of them are butterfly specimens. Some of these butterfly specimens are very small and some are relatively large. Although we didn't learn anything in it, I was still very happy.

At noon, the food we ate was a hundred times more fragrant than the food in the hotel. My request is very simple, as long as the food is clean and delicious. I think it would be great to have a few more steaks or fine beef.

After having a satisfactory lunch, we came to Ledogang Fantasy Park again. I heard other members say that they wanted to go on a roller coaster. When I heard that, I shuddered. I began to fantasize about suddenly sliding down from such a high place. It's scary to think about it. We also played cross-domain Great Wall, secret room escape, etc. inside.

We actively prepare for tomorrow's game in the evening. While we are actively preparing for war, the moon is also cheering us on, and this ancient Beijing city has fallen into a deep sleep again...

In the morning, because I ate more than 20 watermelons, my stomach began to growl. After eating the watermelon, we came to the Microsoft Building. The Microsoft Building was very high and penetrated directly into the sky. We came to the competition site. There were two rows of actions at the competition site, and the entire room was like two rooms connected. We are all sitting in the first row, and we are all in the back, so we have been listening to other people's works for a while. I don't think other people's works are as good as ours, especially those in Heilongjiang. Their stories all have similar backgrounds. They all talk about aliens invading the earth. They litter and destroy the environment. KODU wants to defeat them and teach citizens how to classify garbage, so I don't think they are innovative or playful. They just pick up garbage and throw it into garbage cans. It's not fun at all. They just give speeches a little better than ours.

I waited for almost two hours to get to me. I got on the stage first, got everything ready, and then I started my speech. It was okay at first, but there was a problem with the computer, which caused my language to start to be a little confusing, but then I adjusted it. The speech went quite smoothly for the president.

Then, it was lunchtime. I thought that Microsoft was quite rich, and there were steak in fast food. Since I ate quickly, I finished eating it immediately. I came to the teacher's place and saw Teacher Wang here. Teacher Wang was also here. Teacher Wang was the teacher who taught me Python programming in my world. The teacher taught me some life philosophy, and then he went to do some things.

When everyone else finished eating, we went to the back door of Microsoft to play. Before we had enough fun, it was time to listen to the lecture. The teacher talked about winning methods for other excellent entries and getting started with Micro:bit.

It was the award ceremony, but I actually won the second prize. I was only one away from the first prize. Although I didn't get in the top ten, I still gained a lot. I will study hard in the future, and at the same time, I will cherish and protect the environment and not throw garbage. Back at the hotel, Teacher Wang called my father. He kept encouraging me so that I wouldn't be sad because of this competition, because his words made me understand that when encountering setbacks, don't give up, and move forward bravely. Only then can we win. Through this Beijing Summer Camp, I realized that success requires hard work. In the future, I will work harder to learn various knowledge, not only in computer aspects, but also in various aspects to achieve perfect results.

On this day, we will be separated from other members and we will go to another place-the Mutianyu Great Wall. I also know some information about the Mutianyu Great Wall: the Mutianyu Great Wall in Beijing is located in Huairou District of Beijing City, 73 kilometers away from the Beijing Urban area. It has a long history and splendid culture. It enjoys the reputation of "the Great Wall of Thousands of Miles, the Unique City of Mutianyu" at home and abroad. The scenic area is surrounded by mountains, and the vegetation coverage rate reaches more than 90%. With a total length of 5400 meters, the Great Wall is currently the longest Great Wall in China. It is also one of the famous 16 scenic spots in Beijing and a national AAAAA tourist area. The Mutianyu Great Wall was built in 1368 AD under the supervision of Xu Da, a general under Zhu Yuanzhang, on the site of the Great Wall of the Northern Qi Dynasty. It is the essence of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty. This section of the Great Wall connects Gubeikou in the east and Juyong Pass in the west. It has been a military hub guarding the capital since ancient times. It has famous landscapes such as Zhengguantai, Dajiaolou, and Yingfei. The walls of the Great Wall remain intact, better reflecting the ancient charm of the Great Wall. When we had traveled more than 20 kilometers by car, we got off the bus and took a rest for a while.

We lined up there for an hour and a half before we could get on the cable car and get to the Great Wall.

I thought the Great Wall was so spectacular. It was built on such a high and shaky mountain, but after walking for a while, we no longer wanted to walk, so we took the cable car down the mountain.

But when I checked later, we could reach the most beautiful scenery by walking a little further. Moreover, I also saw that the slide was not scary and very fun. This time it was really a pity.

We then went to the Shinto in the Ming Tombs, which is the Shinto of Changling. Because the Shinto of each tomb is separated from this road, it is also called the General Shinto. The construction of the tomb ceremony began in the tenth year of Xuande in the Ming Dynasty (AD 1435), and was added in the 19th year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty (AD 1540). The buildings such as Shipaifang, Dahongmen (standing on the left and right), Changling Shengong Shengde Stele Pavilion, Shigusheng, Longfengmen, Wukong Bridge, and Qikong Bridge are arranged in turn from south to north, and they are magnificent. Among them, Changling Shenggong Shengde Stele Pavilion, Stone Statue and Longfeng Gate are the core buildings of the Shinto. Their stone carvings are solemn in shape, which is completely in line with the solemn commemorative atmosphere of the mausoleum area, reaching a very high artistic level.

Inside we saw stone lions, lions and stone lions, each sitting two and standing two (the former sat and the latter stood). Because lions are flexible and fierce by nature, they can subdue all beasts and show their majesty. The two sitting lions are each 1.88 meters high, 2.1 meters long and 0.92 meters wide; the standing lions are each 1.93 meters high, 2.5 meters long and 0.78 meters wide. The necks are carved with tasels, bells, belts and other objects.

Then we came to Dingling, which was the tomb of the Ming Dynasty's Wanli Emperor and Empress of the Ming Dynasty. It was one of the thirteen Ming Dynasty imperial tombs distributed in Beijing that had undergone archaeological excavations. Construction of Dingling was started in the 12th year of Wanli (1584) and took 6 years to complete, consuming a total of 8 million taels of silver. The emperor was only 28 years old when the tomb was built, and it was not officially opened until 1620. The tomb was idle for 30 years. Dingling Mausoleum became one of the three largest cemeteries in the Ming Tombs (Changling Mausoleum of Chengzu, Yongling Mausoleum of Shizong, and Dingling Mausoleum of Shenzong). It was built exactly after his grandfather Sejong's Yongling. Its ground buildings cover a total of 180,000 square meters. There are broad courtyards in front of it and a tall Baocheng behind it. In front of the main entrance of the mausoleum is the three-soldier white jade stone bridge. Across the bridge is a tall stele pavilion. There are more than 300 buildings around the pavilion, including temples and sacrificial halls, animal slaughter pavilions, and Dingling prisons. Behind it is the outermost wall of the cemetery-Wailuo City (the wall outside the wall started from Emperor Shizong of the Ming Dynasty, and there was a Wailuo Wall because Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty modeled after Emperor Shizong of the Ming Dynasty when he built the tomb).

We had a simple meal at night and went to bed.

On the fifth day, we went to the Forbidden City. I was very happy, but the weather was not happy at all. It kept raining, so my mother was afraid that I would be cold, so she went to the mall to buy me some clothes to wear. However, we got up early and the stores were not open, so my mother went to ask the old man passing by. The old man passing by said that it was too early and no store was open. Then she said,"If I am cold, then your clothes won't be able to wear it." Therefore, I think Beijingers talk like crosstalk.

We came to the entrance of the Palace Museum. I saw a sign saying: The Palace Museum is a large-scale national comprehensive museum built on the basis of the Forbidden City, the imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties. The Palace Museum displays the long and splendid Chinese civilization to the public through majestic royal buildings of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, original display of historical palace sites of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, special display of ancient Chinese calligraphy and paintings, bronzes, ceramics and treasures, clocks and other art collections, and special exhibitions. The Forbidden City was built in the fifth year of Mingle (1407) and in the 18th year of Mingle (1420). It covers an area of about 780,000 square meters, and has an existing building area of about 160,000 square meters. There are more than 8700 houses. The city wall is about meters high and a moat 52 meters wide surround it. The Forbidden City is the largest and most complete ancient palace complex in my country. The Forbidden City is divided into two major parts: the Outer Dynasty and the Inner Court. The Outer Dynasty consists of the three dynasties halls, namely, Taihe Hall, Zhonghe Hall, and Baohe Hall, and Wenhua Hall and Wuying Hall as two wings. It is mainly the place where the emperor holds grand ceremonies. The Inner Court consists of Qianqing Palace, Jiaotai Hall, and Kunning Palace as the main body, and the six east and west palaces as two wings. It is the place where the emperor handles daily government affairs and the emperor and his empresses and concubines live. In addition, it also includes the Taishang Emperor's Palace on Waidong Road, Nansansuo where the prince lived, and the Empress Dowager Palace on Waixi Road. After the Forbidden City was built, four emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties lived here. After the Revolution of 1911 overthrew the Qing Dynasty, the Forbidden City's history as a feudal palace ended, but Emperor Xun Puyi and the royal family still lived in the inner court. In 1914, the outer part of the Forbidden City was turned into an "antiquities exhibition house" and opened to the public. In 1924, Emperor Xun Pu Yi moved out of the Forbidden City. In 1925, the "Palace Museum" was established in the inner court. In 1948, the "Antiquities Exhibition House" and the "Palace Museum" merged, collectively referred to as the "Palace Museum". In 196, the Palace Museum was promulgated by the State Affairs Council as one of the first batch of "National Key Cultural Relics Protection Units." In 1987, the Palace Museum was included in the "World Heritage List" by UNESCO.

I also heard the tour guide say that the top is north and the north is cold, so the north represents water, and the south is hot, which represents fire. There is a green house in the east, where the emperor raised boys, so the east is covered with wood. The west is where the emperor raised girls. When girls grow up, they will become rich daughters, so the west is gold. In the middle are the characters for the journey of Baohe Hall and Taihe Hall, so the middle is earth.

We first came to the Hall of Supreme Harmony and the Hall of Baohe, then to the Clock Museum, then to the Hall of Supreme Harmony and the Hall of Baohe, and finally to the Imperial Garden.

After coming out of the Forbidden City, we didn't go to Jingshan Park because we were too tired. Before coming to Beihai Park, my father told me that this place was originally built by the Liao, Jin and Yuan Dynasties, and was built by the Ming and Qing Dynasties as an imperial garden. It is the oldest, most complete, most comprehensive and representative surviving royal gardens in China. One of the gardens. I heard that the tower on the top of the mountain is called the White Tower. The White Tower is the real relic of the Buddha Lord, but I have to climb the stairs. The stairs are very high. It took me a long time to climb to the top of the White Tower.

In the evening, we had roast beef and drank Beijing's specialty drink-the Arctic Ocean. But the beef and pork here are too bad and feel fake. We can only eat it hard, but the cold noodles here are okay. Although it tastes terrible and tastes bad here, it's fine as long as it doesn't have diarrhea.

On the last day, we went to the Summer Palace. The Summer Palace was particularly large. The Summer Palace was a royal garden during the Qing Dynasty in China. It was formerly known as Qingyi Garden. It is located in the western suburbs of Beijing, 15 kilometers away from the Urban area, covering an area of about 290 hectares, adjacent to Yuanmingyuan. It is a large-scale landscape garden built with Kunming Lake and Wanshou Mountain as its base sites, Hangzhou West Lake as its blueprint, and drawing on the design techniques of Jiangnan gardens. It is also the most completely preserved royal palace and imperial garden, known as the "Royal Garden Museum". We first crossed Kunming Lake by boat. The boat was traveling very fast and we reached the other bank in less than a while. You can see the entire Summer Palace from the boat, and some waves are blowing from time to time. Being able to feel cool on the lake on such a hot day is simply a great joy in life. We came to the big dock, then to the famous Banbi Bridge, and we also came to the Qingyan Boat. The cabin on the boat was originally in the form of ancient buildings. However, during the invasion of the Anglo-French coalition, the Chinese cabin on the boat was burned. In the 19th year of Guangxu (1893), according to Cixi's intention, the original Chinese-style cabin was converted into a Western-style cabin.

After watching the stone boat, we came to the promenade. We walked along the promenade until we reached the Qiushui Pavilion and changed direction to prepare to go to the Foxiang Pavilion.

Foxiang Pavilion is built on a square foundation with a height of 20 meters in front of Wanshou Mountain. It faces Kunming Lake in the south and backs the Wisdom Sea. The buildings centered on it are neatly and symmetrically unfolded to the two wings, forming a trend that stars hold the moon., the style is quite grand. Foxiang Pavilion is 41 meters high, with 8 sides, 3 floors and 4 eaves. There are 8 huge iron-pear-wood pillars in the Pavilion. The structure is quite complex and is a masterpiece of classical architecture. After watching Foxiang Pavilion, we walked along the promenade and back to the Seventeen-Arch Bridge.

After going to the Summer Palace, we went to the Temple of Heaven. The Temple of Heaven was built in the 18th year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (1420) and was rebuilt during the Qianlong and Guangxu periods of the Qing Dynasty. It was a place for emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties to sacrifice to the emperor and pray for a good harvest of the five grains. The Temple of Heaven is the general term for the two altars of Circular Mound and Praying Valley. It has two altar walls, forming an inner and outer altar. The altar walls are round in the south and in the north, symbolizing the roundness of the sky and the square of the earth. The main building is an inner altar, with the Circular Mound Altar in the south and the Grain Prayer Altar in the north. The two altars are on the same north-south axis, separated by a wall in the middle. We went to the Hall of Prayer for New Year, the Echo Wall, and the Circular Mound Altar, but we didn't go to the Huangqian Hall. When we went to the Echoing Wall, we found that some people had engraved their names on the wall, which made us unable to shout on the wall now.

We went out from the south gate of the Temple of Heaven and took a bus to the Panjiayuan flea market. The market is divided into six business areas: stall area, ancient building area, classical furniture area, modern collection area, stone carving area, and catering service area. It specializes in antique items, jewelry and jade, handicrafts, collectibles, and decorations, with an annual turnover of billions of yuan. I bought many things inside, including crystals, jade, and small gourds made of agate.

After visiting Panjiayuan, we went to the airport to prepare to check in. The plane took off at nine o'clock, so we had a bite to eat outside and went in. Fortunately, the plane was not late. By the time we arrived in Shenzhen, it was already twelve o'clock.

This trip was intense, fulfilling and happy. It was one of the most perfect trips I have ever had. The history and culture of the capital of Beijing not only taught me a lot of knowledge, but also made me more interested in Chinese history. I believe I will come to Beijing again.
