Day 4 Reflections - Chin Park

This China trip has been a great experience so far. It’s very interesting to see the blend of modern and traditional architecture, as well as the expanse of Chinese businesses with a few American businesses mingled throughout (i.e. KFC, McDonalds, Starbucks). The people have been very gracious, and it is amazing to see a major city such as Beijing to be so clean (no litter anywhere). One amusing personal aspect for me is how that almost all of the Chinese people here have assumed I was Chinese as well (I am Korean), and they automatically speak to me in Chinese. I keep having to say, “English. I speak English.”
