One early morning during our summer holidays, we all friends decided to visit different malls in Changsha. We spent hours deciding where to go and where not to go. In the end, we decided to visit Wangjiali square first. This picture is taken outside the cinema of the of the one the mall. But first, let me tell you how we got there. It was 12 in the morning when we first got on the subway station. We were very excited to spend our day at somewhere new. We had been studying and focusing on learning a new language. We had spent many hours on studies during our new semester and were getting used to routine of the medical student. So, we did not have a lot of time to sparee. It was only during our holidays, that we got the chance to visit far away places. We had visited almost every place near our dorm and university. When we arrived at the station, we were amazed by its size and its beauty. Before coming to China, we all knew it was filled with wonders. But only after seeing the beautiful skyscrapers we came to understand the progress of china. Everywhere you look, the buildings seem to touch the sky and different kind of innovations in architecture. China has so many innovative ideas when it comes to beautifying and going a step further! When we entered, the mall was filled with people. At first, we saw a playing area full of different kinds of swings and games. We were almost tempted to try them but did not want to be late for movie. So, for some time, we wandered around the shops . The mall had many floors and a huge number of shops and each shop was filled with variety of products. We spent our time scrolling through beautiful dresses and products. ne thing we came to learn was that China has a great variety of products . From small things like jewellery up to to big things like cars, china is filled with awe. Every country has it's own clothes which tell us the stories about their culture and history. It seemed like a fun and innovative way to experience a culture. China has a vast range of styles from floral patterns to exquisite colours and embroidery, china has become the top market for selling quality products. Hanfu style is my favourite. After spending an hour in the mall, we finally made it our favourite eating place. We got some burgers to eat. China has such a vast range of food, that any tourist will be left in awe. We walked through different shops skilfully representing their foods. The tea shops in china are also very authentic. The bubble tea is my favourite. It's flavour is very unique and extraordinary. And as I write about my memories with china, I miss so many places. Now, let me tell you how we spend the rest of our day After finishing our lunch, we went to wait for our movie to start. This picture was taken while we were waiting for our tickets. it has written 'Nice to meet you'. It seemed very relevant because that is how I felt when I finally came to understand the culture and language to of china. it was a very endearing and rewarding experience. This picture is very important to me because it reminds me of when I first came to know China. It was exactly “Nice to meet you”. And I wish to meet China again when we go back. In the evening, we went to the lake near our dormitory and recalled the wonderful time we had.
In the early morning, we set out to Yongzhou. The one thing that mesmerized us for the rest of the tour was the hospitality of the people of China. Our arrival was arranged by the local people who welcomed us laughing and smiling. I will forever remember that moment because these were the people who didn't know us. Yet, they went out of their way to make us feel welcomed. We were greeted with warmth of their gestures and fireworks. The weather was very beautiful and so was the scenery. We treaded around the local places and discovered a new face of China. The local people were very considerate as they let us have a glimpse of their daily life. It was so astounding and thrilling to see people do their daily chores. It was like we had travelled to a whole new world. We got to see China from the perspective of other people. We laughed and exchanged ideas with the locals and took many pictures. But, I chose this picture because it showed us the unaltered and beautifully simple lifestyle of the people. As we walked along, we saw different houses, animals and shops. People of china were very considerate. They welcomed us warmly and treated us to freshly cut fruits. We had such a great time chatting about the differences and similarities between our cultures. The simple yet eye catching beauty of the site, made us take multiple photos. But, this one photo is my favourite because it shows the unfiltered beauty of china. It shows how something so simple can become so extraordinary if you view it from a different point of view. It reflected on the efforts of the people and their daily routine. It lent us a view into their history and culture. We got to share our thoughts with the local people and heard their stories. |
