Last summer holiday I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )went to two cities with my family. They were Beijing and Dalian. It took us an hour and forty minutes to travel from my home town to Beijing by plane. I went to Beijing more than five times in the past, so I was very familiar with Beijing. My family visited the Great Wall, the Summer Palace, the Palace Museum, Beihai Park, etc. We went to the countryside of Beijing to go boating and fishing. It was very interesting. I went shopping in Wangfujing and bought lots of presents. We ate Beijing roast duck and my parents thought it was really delicious.
Dalian is a be ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )autiful city near the sea. We spent about eighty minutes going to Dalian by plane. We saw many beautiful esplanades (滨海大道) and squares in Dalian.

How relaxing it was.
This trip helped me open my eyes. I enjoyed my holidays.
