Musical postcard - imagined & illustrated by Takuro

Hi Jim,

I'm having a trip to China. I never been to China before so I am really exciting. It took 4 hours in plane to get here which was really uncomfortable. I can't believe that the quality of the seat is low compaired to Japanese one. It's been a bad start, but I experienced and learned many things about China.

First I went to an enormous castle near to the Great Wall of China. It was interesting to see the difference between the Japanese one. The scenery from there was fantastic. What's more, the sunset was so beautiful that I was watching it for a long time, which made me miss the bus, but fortunately I was able to see an endangered bird.

When I got to a lodge, I watched a famous SF movie which was crap.

What I'm going to do tomorrow is visiting the Mexican City, meeting a man who can play music with bins and go to a disco at night, which is the most exciting event for me.

I especially request China for you to visit. It's a good fun.

THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA

The Great Wall of China at MutianyuImage via Wikipedia
“The only man made structure which you can see from space.”

I think that the Great Wall of China is an amazing structure .This structure is more than two thousand seven hundred kilometers in length. It was made to protect the Chinese people from the nomadic people. It is made with huge rocks. There are over five thousand seven hundred platforms for lighting signal fires. In 1987 the Great Wall of China was registered as a world heritage. 


I have been to this place about three times and I think it is stunning, you can see the structure all the way to the
next mountain, you can’t see the end of it and the sight is amazingly beautiful. There are lots of tourists.

The only frustrating thing is that the inhabitants are taking the pieces of the wall to make their houses or to sell it to the tourists so the Great Wall is starting to disappear. 

I think that you should go and visit this place.
