Day 2: roast duck and Summer Palace
we did so well in class that we earned our lunch with Beijing specialty: roast duck! of course, there are many other dishes like vegetables, lamb, chicken and pork. After lunch, we had a good walk at former emperial garden: Summer Palace. We were paired up with Chinese kids as our personal tour guide, and spoke Chinese with them.
