Seeking a travel essay on a trip to Beijing, about 500 words

The August sun scorched the earth hotly, and the sky over Beijing was bright and clear. In this golden August we came to Beijing, the capital of China.

With excitement, we embarked on this journey.

After a bumpy night, we arrived at a service station in the outskirts of Beijing and hurriedly washed up and prepared for a day's play.

We first want to visit the "Chairman Mao Memorial Hall" square is crowded, suddenly my eyes were attracted to a line of people, it is to go to the Memorial Hall, I dizzy! So many people, when will we be able to go in. An hour has passed and we climbed to the third corner at a snail's pace, thinking that we are going to be there, but look up and see there is still a dragon, and half an hour of snail crawling can finally go in. What? There was still a check to be made. We took out all the things in our pockets, said it was passed before letting us in, really troublesome. Inside, first came to the hall looking at the statue of the President I seem to see the President when the mighty. From the side door of the hall out we came to the President's remains, looking at our great leader's heart is incomparable excitement. I seem to hear, hear: October 1, 1949 Chairman Mao stood on the Tiananmen Square tower and loudly proclaimed: "The Chinese nation was founded, the Chinese people from now on stood up." That was such an exciting moment, yes we stood up from then on, from then on no one can bully me China. From the memorial hall out of my heart for a long time can not calm.

Today is the second day of the trip, early in the morning at about 3:00 only to be dragged out of the nest said to go to Tiananmen Square to see the flag-raising ceremony. I didn't even have time to eat breakfast before I hurriedly took the car and left. The air in the morning is really fresh, although it is summer, but the air in the morning is permeated with a slight coolness. An hour's drive took us to our destination, Tiananmen Square. It was still early and not many people were there, so my classmates and I took a more favorable place and waited. We anxiously look forward to 20 minutes, 30 minutes, only to hear people shouting: look na, the east gradually revealed the first white light, exciting moment has arrived. Just see the flag bearers holding the corner of the flag, walking out with solemn steps, there are two teams of flag guardsmen followed out, the footsteps are so loud, so neat. At this time, we hold our breath, eyes unblinking after the flag, the square did not move at all, quiet can only hear the heartbeat. The flag raiser began to raise the flag, hanging the flag, raise the flag, that action is really a board, well-trained. Solemn national anthem played, the bright red flag slowly rose, everyone saluted him. Watching the national flag flying in the air, I am really proud to be his child. How strong our country is, no longer afraid of others' bullying.

In the evening, the summer breeze followed the refreshing aroma of lotus flowers, dragonflies from time to time on the surface of the lake to point up ripples. What a beautiful picture! Here is the "bird's nest" that I have been longing for. The huge bird's nest is hidden among the trees. Looking up, the intricate steel interlaced with a great building in this building, I do not know how many designers, engineers, construction workers have flowed and how much sweat of the people's sweat, and it is these sweats are brought together, only to complete the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. Looking at this magnificent Bird's Nest, I can not help but think of the Olympic Games when the scene. The whole country was cheering, as if China had just been liberated. In the Bird's Nest, countless light stage, outside the Bird's Nest, countless fireworks put on brilliance, the whole Beijing lights ...... think of this, the heart of the blood immediately boiled up, everything, all as if yesterday.
