China
By Emmanuel

There are many places to visit in China. To start with, Hong Kong is one city you can visit. In China there many different languages, but in Hong Kong they mostly speak English and Cantonese. In Hong they wear Western–style clothing like we do. They also wear samfoos and cheongsams too. Another place to visit is the Ocean Park. There is a four-story aquarium, were they keep 2,000 fish.

Another place to visit in China is Mt. Everest. It is 29,035 feet high and located between Nepal and Tibet. The mountain is so high that it reaches the jet stream. Mt. Everest is also popular because it stands as a symbol of challenge and beauty. The Mountain is 60 million years old. Over 4,000 people have tried to climb it, but only 660 made it. The first people to ever climb to the top were Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay.

In addition to Hong Kong and Mt. Everest, the Terracotta warriors are another place visit in China. Over 7,000 life–sized Warriors were found by farmers who were drilling a well. The Warriors were built to protect the emperor in the after life .

So you can see there are many places to visit in China. The Terracotta Warriors, Hong Kong and Mt. Everest are some of the places I told you about. I think China would a great place to visit.
