Goodbye, Beijing

I left Beijing by night train to Xi’an, about a twelve hour ride. I liked Beijing a lot. I saw lots of tourist attractions including:
-Great Wall (twice)
-Forbidden City (twice)
-Tianamen Square
-Temple of Heaven
-Drum and Bell Towers
-Jingshan Park
-Summer Palace
-Lama Temple
-Acrobatics
-Beijing Opera
-Hutons or old neighborhoods
-Mao’s underground tunnel system (protection against Soviets)
I also ate Peking duck, very good. Also, a rabbit hot pot. The food and service everywhere was good. I would go back and recommend it.
