"Yes, art can purify and sublimate people's souls." Huang Xu said.

"We learned a lot today, and we will come to the 798 Art Zone next time." Li Xiao said with a smile.

The three of them wandered around the 798 Art District all day, and reluctantly left until evening. They went to nearby Sanlitun, where they tasted various international delicacies and visited various fashionable shops.

"This pasta is so delicious and tastes authentic." Zhang Yue said while eating.

"Yes, the food here is very good. I will come again next time." Huang Xu agreed.

"By the way, I heard that BJ's nightlife is also very rich. Let's go and experience it at night." Li Xiao suggested.

"Then let's go to Bar Street in the evening and experience BJ's nightlife." Huang Xu suggested.

The three of them went to BJ's Bar Street again to experience the bustling nightlife. They tasted various fine wines, enjoyed various wonderful performances, communicated with friends from all over the world, and enjoyed this wonderful night.

"Yes, the people here are very enthusiastic and the atmosphere is very warm." Huang Xu said with emotion.

"We are so lucky to experience another side of BJ today." Li Xiao said with a smile.

The three of them played in the bar street until late at night, and reluctantly left until the early morning. They returned to the hotel, lying on the bed, excitedly discussing what they had seen and heard today, and looking forward to tomorrow's trip.

"Yes, there are too many attractions in BJ. I will come again next time." Zhang Yue agreed.

"We are so lucky to experience another side of BJ today." Huang Xu said with emotion.

The three of them chatted for a long time in the hotel and gradually fell asleep late at night. During their few days at BJ, they made many beautiful memories and gained a deep friendship.

Their BJ trip is still going on. On a new day, the sun is shining brightly. Li Xiao, Zhang Yue and Huang Xu decide to explore another side of BJ - the old alley.

"Brother Xiao, I heard that BJ's alley is very unique. Let's go to the alley today." Zhang Yue suggested.

"Good idea. There are a lot of old BJ's style in the alley. Let's go and experience it." Li Xiao nodded in agreement.

They came to Nanluoguxiang, which is one of the most famous alleys in BJ and retains many of the features of old BJ. The narrow alley is lined with courtyards with gray bricks and gray tiles on both sides. Occasionally, you can see old-fashioned gatehouses and stone lions.

"The alleys here are really flavorful, completely different from high-rise buildings." Huang Xu said with emotion.

"Yes, this place is full of history, making people feel as if they have traveled through time and space." Zhang Yue agreed.

They walked in the alley, and from time to time they could see some old people playing chess at the door, and children chasing and playing in the alley, which gave them a strong sense of life.

"Brother Xiao, look there is an old teahouse over there. Let's go and sit." Zhang Yue pointed to the teahouse not far away and said.

"What a great idea. It's just a good time to take a break and experience Old BJ's tea culture." Li Xiao said with a smile.

They walked into the teahouse and saw that it was decorated in an antique style, with calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls and tea sets on the table. They found a seat by the window and ordered a pot of jasmine tea.

"The tea here is so fragrant, different from the tea we usually drink." Zhang Yue praised.

"Yes, the tea culture here is very unique, and every pot of tea has its story." Huang Xu said.

"By the way, I heard that there is a Peking Opera performance here in the evening. Let's watch it tonight." Li Xiao suggested.

"What a great idea. I'm also very interested in Peking Opera." Zhang Yue said excitedly.

"Then let's watch Peking Opera in the evening and experience Chinese traditional art." Huang Xu suggested.

In the evening, they came to the Mei Lanfang Grand Theater, where Peking Opera performances are often performed. They bought tickets, found a good seat, and waited for the show to start.

With the sound of gongs and drums, the Peking Opera performance began. The actors on the stage are dressed in gorgeous costumes, with exquisite facial makeup on their faces, singing melodiously, and making exaggerated and expressive movements.

"Peking opera is so amazing, every movement and every look is full of art." Zhang Yue praised.

"Yes, Peking Opera is the quintessence of China. It combines singing, reading, acting, fighting and other art forms." Huang Xu said with emotion.

"We are so lucky to experience Chinese traditional art again today." Li Xiao said with a smile.

After the performance, they reluctantly left the theater. They went to the nearby snack street and tasted a variety of authentic BJ snacks.

"This candied haws is so delicious, sour and sweet." Zhang Yue said while eating.

"Yes, the snacks here are very good. I will come again next time." Huang Xu agreed.

"By the way, I heard that the night view of BJ's Olympic Park is beautiful. Let's go there at night and have a look." Li Xiao suggested. "What a great idea. I've wanted to go to the Olympic Park for a long time." Zhang Yue said excitedly.

"Then let's go to the Olympic Park in the evening and enjoy the night view of BJ." Huang Xu suggested.

The three of them came to the Olympic Park again, and saw that the park was brightly lit, and the Bird's Nest and Water Cube looked particularly spectacular against the lights.

"The night view here is so beautiful. The Bird's Nest and Water Cube look particularly beautiful under the lights." Zhang Yue praised.

"Yes, the night view of BJ is really beautiful." Huang Xu said with emotion.

"We are so lucky to see another side of BJ today." Li Xiao said with a smile.

They wandered in the park for a long time and reluctantly left until late at night. They returned to the hotel, lying on the bed, excitedly discussing what they had seen and heard today, and looking forward to tomorrow's trip.

As the BJ trip progressed, Li Xiao, Zhang Yue and Huang Xu decided to experience another side of the city - nature and tranquility.

"Brother Xiao, BJ's Xiangshan Park is famous for its red leaves in autumn. How about we go there and have a look?" Huang Xu suggested.

"The Fragrant Mountain in autumn is indeed beautiful, but now it is spring, we can go there to see the spring scenery." Li Xiao replied.

"The Fragrant Mountain in spring should also be beautiful. Let's go and feel the breath of nature." Zhang Yue said excitedly.

When they came to Xiangshan Park, the breath of spring hit their faces. The mountains were full of greenery, various flowers were blooming, and the air was filled with fresh floral fragrance.

"The air here is so good. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, I feel relaxed." Zhang Yue took a deep breath and said with emotion.

"Yes, the beauty of nature always makes people feel happy." Huang Xu agreed.

They strolled along the paths of Xiangshan, occasionally stopping to admire the surrounding plants or overlooking the scenery of Beijing.

"Look, there is a stream over there. Let's go and have a look." Li Xiao pointed to the stream not far away and said.

They came to the creek, and the clear water gurgled by. The creek was covered with various wild flowers, and a few butterflies were flying among the flowers.

"The scenery here is so beautiful. I want to stay here for a while." Zhang Yue sat on a stone by the stream and admired it quietly.

"Then let's rest here for a while and enjoy this quiet time." Li Xiao suggested.

They rested for a while by the stream and continued to climb up the mountain road until they reached the highest point of Xiangshan - Xianglu Peak.

Standing on Xianglu Peak, they overlooked the entire city of Beijing. The tall buildings and green mountains and green waters complemented each other, forming a beautiful picture.

"Watching BJ from here is really unique." Huang Xu said with emotion.

"Yes, the prosperity of the city and the tranquility of nature are perfectly integrated here." Li Xiao said.

"We are so lucky to see another side of BJ today." Zhang Yue said with a smile.

They enjoyed the scenery on Xianglu Peak for a while, and then went down the mountain along another road. On the way, they also visited Xiangshan Temple and felt the tranquility and solemnity of the temple.

“The temples here are very historical and awe-inspiring,” Zhang Yue said.

"Yes, every brick and tile here has witnessed historical changes." Huang Xu said.

"We learned a lot today, and we will come to Xiangshan next time." Li Xiao said with a smile.

As the sun set, they left Xiangshan Park and returned to the city.

"We went to eat Peking duck today. I heard it is BJ's traditional delicacy." Li Xiao suggested.

"What a great idea. I've long wanted to try authentic Peking duck." Zhang Yue said excitedly.

"Then let's go to Quanjude. The roast duck there is famous." Huang Xu suggested.

They arrived at Quanjude Roast Duck Restaurant. The interior was elegantly decorated and the waiters warmly welcomed them.

"The roast duck here looks really good, with crispy skin and tender meat." Zhang Yue said looking at the roast duck that had just come out of the oven.

"Yes, the roast duck here is very famous. We are in for a treat today." Huang Xu said.

They tasted the delicious roast duck and praised BJ's food. (End of chapter)
