Beijing Tour to improve my Mandarin

Dear friends

I managed to bring my family to Beijing for a tour just before the new year. It was an eye opener.

The family managed to climb the great wall despite it being winter.

Highlights included visiting Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City.

The boys stayed back for another 21 days at Shishahai Sports Academy for badminton training with the Beijing Team.

Here are some photos from the trip.

Ancient Chinese warrior statue with traditional armor and facial features. Authentic Chinese tea being poured from a decorative teapot by a vendor. Family enjoying winter day outdoors at a park with traditional Chinese pavilion in the background. Group photo of Tan and Tan Lawyers outside their office. Close-up of skewered insects and spiders displayed on metal trays at a market. Night city street with shoppers, street vendors, and bright city lights.

The family’s last meal together in Beijing. It was an Italian restaurant as the boys missed western food.

It was an interesting trip and a must do one to find my roots.

Will update you all later.
