One possible version: My pleasant trip m Beijing
Last summer holiday I went to Beijing with my parents. It took us about two hours to get there by air. Although the weather was hot, we spent three days there.
As soon as we arrived in Beijing, we went to Tian'anmen Square. It is the biggest square in the world. The next day we visited the Palace Museum. On the third day we went to the Great Wall. It is wonderful. We enjoyed the famous Beijing Duck. Mum did some shopping in Wangfujing Street. She bought some souvenirs for my cousins.
We were excited and happy although we were a little tired. I wish to visit here again one day.
