The Situation

In 北京 (Beijing), a group of tourists gathers at 故宫 (The Forbidden City | Gùgōng), eager to explore its 遗产 (heritage | yíchǎn) and 艺术 (art | yìshù). They marvel at the 展品 (exhibits | zhǎnpǐn) and listen to the 解说 (explanation | jiěshuō) provided by their 导览 (guide | dǎolǎn). The group is fascinated by the 古迹 (historical sites | gǔjì) and discusses the 宗教 (religious | zōngjiào) and 传统 (traditional | chuántǒng) aspects of each site.

They respect the 规定 (regulations | guīdìng) and 保护 (protection | bǎohù) measures in place, especially regarding 拍照 (photography | pāizhào) and 禁止 (prohibited | jìnzhǐ) areas. Visitors carry 手册 (pamphlets | shǒucè) and 导览图 (map guides | dǎolǎn tú) for better understanding. They immerse themselves in the 风俗 (customs | fēngsú) and 民俗 (folklore | mín sú) of the area, seeking a deeper 体验 (experience | tǐyàn).

At a nearby market, they admire 工艺品 (handicrafts | gōngyìpǐn) and inquire about 票价 (ticket prices | piàojià) for various attractions, happy to find 优惠 (discounts | yōuhuì) for students. They learn about 限制 (restrictions | xiànzhì) in certain areas and eagerly 参与 (participate | cānyù) in 活动 (activities | huódòng) offered at cultural sites.
