Знакомство с Иннополисом

China was like a new world for us: new language, new people, exotic culture, stunning infrastructure.

We studied in Beijing – in Beijing Institute of Technology.

The campus of the university is really huge! Everybody travels by bicycles around it (and by the way, not only on campus, but also all around the cities in China), and you can easily rent them.

The teachers and other students were very open and kind to us, but it's not just about the university environment, but about the Chinese community in general. We have made a lot of Chinese friends. And, of course, we had a great opportunity to practice Chinese!

Not only people are friendly in China, but also animals! Here you may have a chance to see peculiar lamas, 可爱的 pandas, and a lot of cats.

During our 4-month journey, we visited many Chinese cities: Beijing, Shanghai, Hefei, Xi'an, Chengdu, Guilin, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Hong Kong. Most of them are highly advanced and progressive. Each city has its own atmosphere and style.

China is unique for its electric cars, trains moving almost at the speed of a plane, and other fascinating things. In Shenzhen, we visited a huge center with every kind of electronics and gadgets you can think of.

Chinese food is a topic of a separate discussion, but to make it short, it will not leave you indifferent! Even though it has been over a month, I still really miss some of the dishes and think it was really tasty and healthy.

The history of China is ancient and diverse - there are a lot of different sights and most of them are really amazing. China is great not only for historical places or modern technological sights, but also for natural sights - there are a lot of picturesque places in China.

These outstanding places are worth visiting at least once - you must go and see and feel it for yourself!
