Today I went to Tiananmen Square. It was really amazing but it was so crowed. It’s going to take some getting used to! The building was breathe-taking. It towered high above the surrounding area. The roof was my favourite all the individual beams shaped to fit the magnificent structure. It has been an amazing day so far.

For dinner I went to Xiao Wang Fu restaurant the food was really good especially the duck. Although the menu was MEGA hard to read! Hundreds of dishes all in Chinese! HELP!? Luckily my Chinese phrasebook had a few things to help my so I managed to order some things I wanted! I had many recommendations and they were right it was a great experience. The atmosphere was great I would definitely recommend it to anyone who loves great food, great atmosphere and China!

I need to be getting to bed now as I am still recovering from my l

ong journey.
