Trip Moments

Post

On a fresh morning during the republic day, among 1000 of visitors in that 1000 metres you get that goosebump feeling when the flag is raised. Yes, I am telling about the flag hoisting ceremony 🎋that happens at 天安门广场 ( Tiananmen square). It is such a raise of spirit not only for the thousands of people standing there but also for millions of people watching over TV. It is almost a dream, to watch the soliders bringing the flags and raising it to the top of the pole. Situated right in front of the Forbidden city, this place has historical importance. Near to this, is located Mao Zedong's mausoleum🏯 where his body is preserved and kept. Overall, it is such a sight to behold in your mind for long time 😎 #beijingtrip#urbanexplorer

Beijing Tiananmen Square is a symbol of the capital Beijing. One of the attractions of domestic and foreign tourists must hit the card. The ancient capital of Beijing attracts tourists with its unique charm. The red flag is fluttering in the wind. The Monument to the Peoples Heroes stands in the middle of the square and can be visited on the Tiananmen Gate. When I was young, my family took photos in Tiananmen every year. The Forbidden City in my heart was inclusive. Every time I passed, I remembered the song that I loved Beijing Tiananmen and blessed the prosperity of the motherland. Photographing card guide, look at the flag-raising tour in the morning, must bring an ID card, after passing the security check, you can enter the Tiananmen Square, avoid the rush hour to take pictures, walk through the Jinshui Bridge to visit the Forbidden City.
