T: How far is it to the hotel? G:About a forty-minute ride. You might as well have a look at the city along the way. T:Yes, I have been looking forward to seeing the city. I know there are many scenic spots and historical sites in Beijing, such as the Great Wall, the palace Museum,and the Summer Palace. I am really itching for a visit. G:You must be very tired after the long trip. I think you should have a good rest before we get down to sightseeing. T:Well, I'm here at your disposal. Oh, that must be Tian' anmen. I know it dates back to the Ming Dynasty. The square is so wonderful.
