Beijing Day 3: Officially Cooked. SOS!
-
So envious! I still have another day at the Forbidden City tomorrow, and I can barely walk anymore.
-
Attended the flag-raising at dawn, went straight into the Forbidden City afterwards, then the Old Summer Palace in the afternoon. I walked so much I felt like sparks were flying!
-
That's incredible!
-
Is it cold enough to wear a woolen coat, dear?
-
30,000 steps every day for 5 days. The happiest moment each day was collapsing into bed.
-
So true! The best part is finally lying in your own bed at home.

It's true, every tourist visiting Beijing can't believe that exploring just one major attraction a day can be utterly exhausting. But when we Beijingers travel elsewhere, it's the opposite – everything seems so small and close. We can visit several places in a day and still have time left over, wondering where to go next!
-
Just getting from the Summer Palace to Universal Studios feels like a journey in itself. Besides Beijing, only Shanxi province gives me that same feeling of vastness – you definitely need to self-drive there.
-
Totally! I just took a walk around my neighborhood today and, oh my god, 13,000 steps already!

This afternoon, after leaving Beihai Park, I had to walk endlessly through the hutongs to get to the subway station. They were so, so, so, so long! I was about to break down. There were no share bikes anywhere, and I was absolutely exhausted.
