What I Saw:

I saw the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square.  I also saw the Great Mosque, the Stele Museum, and the Tang Dynasty dinner show.

My Favorite Part of the Day:

My favorite part of the day was the steles (large stone tablets with writing.)

What I Learned Today:

Tianenmen Square is a large public square most known for protests by the people of China.  The Forbidden City is the Chinese imperial palace built in 1420.  The Stele Museum is a temple that holds 3,000 steles since 1087.  There were also stone statues of lions and tomb gates.
