Possible Version:
Last Summer, my parents and I went to Beijing for our summer holiday. We left Nanjing at 8:00 on the morning of August 2nd, and we took the plane there. It’s a fast and comfortable journey, and we arrived in Beijing at 9:20. The weather was pleasant. We went to see the Palace Museum as soon as we got to Beijing. We were very excited when we saw the Palace Museum and we took a lot of photos there.
On the second day of our trip, we went to see the Great Wall, It was a famous view in the world. It was very great, and a lot of tourists went to visit it every year. We listened to the tour guide, and knew more about it.
In the evening we often went shopping in the city center of Beijing---Wangfujing Street. We bought a lot of things as souvenirs.
Beijing food was very delicious, I like Beijing Duck best.
We enjoyed our trip very much. It was a happy experience and I will never forget it.
