On the exchange, we had many opportunities to experience more of China on excursions to different areas of Beijing. The excursions we went on introduced us to different parts of the city, expanding our understanding of the Beijing culture.
Temple of Heaven
Forbidden City
In such a huge city, there are many different areas with much to learn in and about all of them. We lived in the very west part of Beijing, so it was important to us to visit the rest of the city. We also visited many ancient temples like the Forbidden City and the Temple of Heaven. These weekend excursions were important because we learned a lot about the expansive history of China.
Great Wall
During our one week stay in Xi’an, every day was filled with new and excited things to see and experience.
Biking the ancient Xi'an City Wall
Terracotta Warriors
Hiking Mt. Huashan outside of Xi'an
Eating lunch or dinner in other areas after school was a fun way to see how people live in different areas.
