Interesting Places to Visit In China

By Diego

There are many interesting places to visit in China. First, let me tell you about the city of Beijing. It is the capital of China. It is also the second largest city. The Forbidden City is in Beijing too. It took over 200,000 people to build it. The Beijing Zoo is another interesting place, it is known for its panda’s.

Another example of why you should visit China is to see Mt. Everest. Mt. Everest is the highest mountain in the world. It also is part of the jet stream. Some scientists say its 60 million years old. Only 600 people have reached the summit. 140 people have died while trying to reach the top of Mt. Everest.

The last place you should visit in China is The Great Wall of China. The Great Wall of China is the only man made object that can be seen from space. It is 4,500 miles long. The Great Wall of China starts at the Korea Mountains and ends at the Himalaya Mountains. It is 25 feet tall and 15 to 30 feet thick.

As you can see China would be a great place to visit because you could go to Beijing, Mt. Everest and the Great Wall of China.
