Wernigerode, Germany - 21st December 2013
By: visit BERLIN
My personal highlight was the Wernigerode Castle! We were walking through the amazing rooms and for two hours I felt like I am home! Sadly it was forbidden to make pictures inside the castle but here you can see it outside.

Hi~Mum
This weekend is Qingming Festival in China.So We have a short holiday.
Qing Ming is a time to remember the dead and the dearly departed. More important, it is a period to honour and to pay respect to one's deceased ancestors and family members. Because it reinforces the ethic of filial piety, Qing Ming is a major Chinese festival. Literally meaning "clear" (Qing) and "bright" (Ming), this Chinese festival falls in early spring, on the 106th day after the winter solstice. It is a "spring" festival.
In contrast to the sadness of the tomb sweepers, people also enjoy hope of Spring on this day. The Qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines brightly, the trees and grass become green and nature is again lively. Since ancient times, people have followed the custom of Spring outings. At this time tourists are everywhere.
So We went to the park and enjoyed flowers.There flowers are very beautiful
The spring outing was interesting. I like spring outing and I want to spring outing again.

Hi~~
We went to China national grand theatre the opera today.
I heard that The National Grand Theater is built in the shape of a shell. The whole building measures 46.68 meters in height and the deepest part built underground measures 32.5 meters in depth. The theater is more than 600 meters in circumference and surrounded by a man-made lake that covers an area of 35, 500 square meters.
The opera hall is the most important part inside the theater. It is painted mainly in the color of gold and can seat 2,398 people.
Painted in white, the concert hall gives the public an impression that it is an elegant building with a high-class taste. The music hall can seat 2,019 people and will be mainly used for performing symphonies and Chinese folk music.
And there is the drama hall for displaying stage plays and dramas. The hall can seat 1,035 people.
The National Grand Theater can provide first-class services for artists and musicians. There are five places where artists can have their rehearsals, 32 rooms with musical instruments, and 80 dressing rooms. Many dressing rooms are equipped with a bathroom.
The National Grand Theater will become an ideal place for world-renowned artists and art troupes to give their performances. At the same time, China will also try to introduce its local music to the world at the country's grandest music building.
We looked at today's opera is 《The Lady of the Camellias》 is a French tragic play based on Alexandre Dumas (the younger) 1848 novel by the same name, (it is sometimes referred to as "Camille"). The play was adapted for the theater by Dumas in 1852 and then for the opera by the composer Verdi's 'La Traviata' in 1853. The play became a favorite of audiences in the late 19th century.
This is a tragic love story. The opera is very moving.
I think that opera is particularly enjoyable.
