Unforgettable Moments in Beijing β€” 5-Day Travel Journal

πŸ“… Itinerary

Day 1:
Arrived at the hotel/hostel I had booked 🏨. Took the subway πŸš‡ to get there. When using the Beijing subway, I paid with the Alipay app πŸ“± or a Visa card πŸ’³. Spent the day exploring the neighborhood πŸ™οΈ and doing some shopping πŸ›οΈ.

Day 2:
Woke up early πŸŒ… and visited the Beijing Zoo πŸ…πŸ¦πŸ» and Aquarium 🐠🐟. The zoo had all kinds of animals like jackals, lions, and even polar bears 🐾. The aquarium was absolutely stunning 🐬✨.

Day 3:
Went to the world-famous Universal Studios 🎒🎬! Unfortunately, I forgot my passport πŸ˜…. Also, some items like selfie sticks 🀳 and glass food containers 🚫 are not allowed inside.

Day 4:
Spent the day at the Great Wall 🏯🧱. It’s best to visit when the weather is cool 🌀️ for a more comfortable experience.

Day 5:
Checked out of the hotel πŸ›ŽοΈ and ended the trip ✈️.

🍴 Food Recommendations:
During my stay, I ate at several restaurants on the lower floor of Sanlitun SOHO πŸ£πŸœπŸ”. Since my friend isn’t a fan of Chinese food, we tried Japanese πŸ‡―πŸ‡΅, Korean πŸ‡°πŸ‡· dishes, and even McDonald’s πŸŸπŸ”.

πŸ“Œ Tips:
Useful apps in Beijing include Beijing Subway πŸš‡, WeChat πŸ’¬, Alipay πŸ’°, Didi πŸš—, and ChatGPT πŸ€– (which should be used with a VPN πŸ›‘οΈ).
