This summer, Dora went to Beijing to participate in a summer camp and reluctantly brought her parents and two oil bottles. Dora was sweating profusely on the Temple of Heaven, scolding in front of the camera, leaving her parents to eat, sleep, and play. It's a bit embarrassing to say that.

It's been over 20 years since my father last went to Beijing, and the biggest impression of the imperial capital this time is that he doesn't have much memory. I remember back then that Badaling was far away, Tiananmen Square was very big, and Beijing was very hot. Perhaps for Dora this time, there won't be much left in a few years, but for us, every day she spent at the summer camp was gratifying, with visible qualitative progress. Sleeping on a small bed alone, washing and bathing alone, having a buffet with friends alone, leaving my parents' sight to venture into unfamiliar stages alone... Reading thousands of books solidifies the foundation, understanding and understanding, and is the bottom line. Traveling thousands of miles broadens one's horizons, astronomy and geography, and limits.

Beijing itinerary:

Day 1: The high-speed train arrives at the South Station, the subway line 14 goes to Shangezhuang, and a taxi takes you to the hotel.

Day 2: Summer Camp Temple of Heaven Opening Ceremony, with logistical support for Family 1 and Family 2.

Day 3: After attending classes, family members will go for a stroll in the city.

Day 4: Dora gave a speech on camera, and 1 family member and 2 family members strolled around the city (Yonghe Temple).

Day 5: Closing ceremony, Dora and her family moved to the city center, checked into a hotel, and went out to eat.

Day 6: Dora and her family explore the Forbidden City.

Day 7: Take a taxi to the subway station, then take the high-speed train to the south station and go home.

Transportation in Beijing:

The first four nights were spent staying at a hot spring hotel arranged by the summer camp, in a suburban area of the North Sixth Ring Road. It took 20 minutes by taxi and nearly an hour by subway to get into the city. The time cost is unimaginable for us who come to small cities. I will be living near Guangqumen for the next two days. Although it takes about ten minutes to take a taxi, the distance is not far and I can still walk to the subway station. The subway stations in Beijing are very convenient, and with the next mobile app and payment methods linked, you can have a smooth journey. It only costs a few yuan to sit in the dead, which is very cost-effective.

Beijing's cuisine:

Before going there, I asked my friends in Beijing about all kinds of delicious food, such as roast duck, roast meat, hot pot, and tasted Zhajiangmian. However, what Dora misses the most is the salad at the summer camp buffet. Every time the kids beat a bowl of chicken, she beats a bowl of colorful vegetables.

Weather in Beijing:

I had a good luck with this trip. The weather was beautiful. It was said that it rained every day before going, but it started to clear up after arriving. Except for a slight drizzle on the day of visiting the Forbidden City, it was either cloudy or cloudy, which was great.

Next, let's start the upgraded version of WeChat Moments and share the following message:


day1:


After a long journey, it was already late at night when we arrived at the hotel.


I estimate it's probably the last batch to sign in.



Received various passports and badges.



Number D287 is too much.


day2:



The next morning, I got up early and went to the Temple of Heaven to attend the opening ceremony. The children had a separate bus, and from that moment on, they had already started to act alone and cultivate their self-care abilities.


The task of accompanying family members is to wave the red flag.


The entrance to Temple of Heaven Park


The weather is really nice, Imperial Blue


There are many tourists, as well as local gentlemen and aunties. There are also various discounts for annual and monthly passes


Red walls and green tiles, towering ancient trees


Seeing landmarks from afar


There are really many people


Blessing for the coming year, with good weather and good weather



Children start queuing up

"Youth is strong, China is strong"



Family members strolling nearby



The summer camp occupies a corner


A side hall of the Temple of Heaven




Another entrance to the Temple of Heaven


The return journey is so congested that you have to cry. The traffic in Beijing is really scary. When you look at the Gaode map, it turns red and purple.


day3:




Family members go to class, and Duola also goes to class.




The training classroom is located in the hotel's conference center.




It's a bit far away and old, but the environment is very nice




Various leisure lounge chairs




This sentence left a deep impression on me, and I share it with you



Let's play after class



Family member 1 decided to spend a 3-hour drive to see the night view of the city center.




The most central street in China



A bustling and splendid scene



the country is prosperous and the people are at peace



How much is the housing price per square meter in this place?



Turn around, Wangfujing ahead

A place where history and trends blend together



Unfortunately, I didn't come, otherwise I would have gone in and strolled around

Come on, come on stage



It's all in the small raindrops



One single photo



Performed well



Summer Camp Family Photo




Two flowers bloom, each representing one branch



Two family members go to visit the Yonghe Palace



Green trees provide shade



The destination is ahead. This is the palace where Yongzheng and Qianlong lived, a blessed place



Now it has become a holy place for praying in Tibetan Buddhism



When in Rome, do as the Romans do, and receive a free short incense stick



Smoke billowing



Every side hall has many stories



Many people who pray hold lotus flowers in their hands, praying for career, love, health, and success



The specialty here is the incense ash bracelet, which is made by blending incense ash worshipped by virtuous men and women. It comes in two types: porcelain and glass, with many colors and different meanings.



These are all civil and martial arts



These are all teams that shine on the bracelets



People follow the crowd



My wife bought me two strings



After coming out, I went to the nearby Da Wan Ju. The third brother from Beijing said that the noodles here are good.



When brought up



After mixing



fried pork balls


Knife cake


day5:



Summer camp ends, check out and leave



Inside the hotel



Hotel bar counter



Outside the hotel



The billboard in the garden is still there



How about having roast duck for lunch



Before I could take a photo, the roast duck was snatched away by the kids. So, let's have a side dish to suggest



After dinner, I passed by my big pants



Yuanwang Big Shorts



high rising buildings stand in great numbers



Everyone said they were going to Sanlitun to buy delicious ice cream



As a result, the originally scheduled internet celebrity store closed, so let's have one from the second celebrity across the street



Be careful and be afraid of falling off



Dinner will be over at the South Gate



bar counter




The brochure



Panorama of dishes



Old Beijing Special Copper Pot



Duola and her friends can't stop eating


day6:



Have breakfast and go to the Forbidden City



A popular snack chain store




Taste every little bit of it


Have you ever eaten a cake bigger than your head



After finishing breakfast, I rushed to Tiananmen Square and was immediately shocked by the magnificent scene upon leaving. Thank you for taking photos as a souvenir


See if you have recorded this magnificent scene



Can you help to remove the tourists from behind?



I want to go and see more, I want to go and see more... (First grade text)



Our time is peaceful because of the weight you carry forward



Celebrating Centenary Birthday



Take a group photo with Tiananmen Square



Following the crowd through Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City Museum is approaching from afar



The Forbidden City, which has been pondering day and night



Tickets to the Forbidden City need to be booked through the official website. You can grab them on your phone at 8:30 pm ten days in advance. If you don't get them, you can only stop here and can't enter.



I originally wanted to watch the flag raising, but I have to wake up at 2 o'clock and stand for another 2 hours. I really can't bear it, so let's make a gesture of goodwill here.



As we salute, the uncles of the escort team are returning from training with neat steps



On stage for a minute, off stage for ten years of hard work, winter training for 39, summer training for 3. Watching their light green military uniforms soaked in sweat into deep green, I timely gave Doraemon another big lesson.



Received the ticket and arrived at the ticket gate below the noon gate


Rent a tour guide and a mini map. I listen to the Wang Gang version, listen to the children's version more often.



Through the narrow passage, ahead lies the sky of history



There are fewer people than outside



Take photos while listening to the explanation



Start the day's journey of measuring the imperial city with your feet.



The children passing by exclaimed loudly, "Good luck, good luck!"



Every brick in this square is telling its own story



Step through the door and enter the emperor's office area



At first, Duola said she wanted to visit every room, but the motivation only lasted for half an hour



Ancient Bell



A crane that heralds good luck and good fortune


Every palace has a huge square in front of it



Ahead, the Emperor's Office



Currently undergoing renovation, the main hall cannot be accessed and can only be viewed from outside



All the main halls are inaccessible, so we can only take photos outside as a souvenir



As an outsider, I feel that every palace is similar, and only by listening to instructions and introductions can I understand the story and meaning behind it



At this point, Duola is already on the brink of death



Many tourist groups are also repairing here, and there are plenty of chairs and dining places to rest and eat in the entire Forbidden City, and the prices are not expensive, very affordable.




Dora and her mother became lively as soon as they saw the specialty store, buying a lot of bookmarks and souvenirs




I walked out of the Forbidden City from the Shenwu Gate for a full 5 hours



In the distance, it should be Jingshan Park, which is said to overlook the panoramic view of the Forbidden City.



As soon as we left the Forbidden City, tourist buses were transferred to the subway station or other scenic areas. Dora took us to Nanluoguxiang, where the sugar puffer played a little horse and ate.



The commercial atmosphere here is actually too strong.



The barbecue recommended by Beijing San Ge is in a small alley where many authentic Beijing people eat it.


Lay one layer on top


Spread another layer and start eating


day7:



Today is the day to go home, but Duola said we all have bracelets and she also wants them, so she took the time to go to the Yonghe Temple before going home.



When queuing up, a little girl behind me who was purchasing on behalf of me envied me and said, "You really made a lot of money on this order.".



The high-speed train ticket checkpoint for returning home.


The Beijing section ends, will the next section be Nanjing, Chongqing, or Xi'an
