Xiao Yan: Oh, well, what about the Ming-Qing Street—that’s pretty big. Some of the snacks there are amazing!
Paul: Oh, that place, yes. But I had no idea there would be so many tourists! So I decided to leave and ride out to Shuanglin Temple.

Paul: Yeah, that place is really quiet. And some of those sculptures—wow! I couldn’t believe how big and lifelike they were.
Xiao Yan: Yes, they’re amazing. So today you walked along the city wall, right
