During the weekend parents and I paid a visit to Datong City by train. We arrive there at about 9 am. First we went to a ancient temple, in that we saw some impressive Budda statues. It is small but beautiful. So we stayed here for nearly two hours. Then we left for the temple to go downtown. You can't imagine what crowded the street was! My parents bought some souvenirs in the local market. Meanwhile, I collected some postcard and funny toys. As we know, Datong is famous for its noodles, so we couldn't wait to taste some in a restaurant decorating traditionally. At 5 pm, we came back home happy.
4 . Nothing beats live music, but the venue makes a difference. When you're able to score tickets to an incredible concert in an incredible place, you won't forget the experience. Here are some of the coolest music venues from around the world. If you haven't been to any of these, you've got some traveling to do.

Arena of NÎmes, NÎmes, France
Originally built around A. D. 70, the Arena of Nimes presents concertgoers with an interesting question: Should they enjoy the music, or marvel at the architecture? The Arena is, after all, one of the world's best-preserved Roman theaters. Many major touring acts plan stops at the Arena of Nimes, especially during the venue's annual festival.
Sydney Opera House, Sydney, Australia
The Sydney Opera House is one of the world's most famous performing venues. I's also one of the most distinctive buildings in Sydney, thanks to the breathtaking design by Danish architect Utzon.

Located on Shengshan Island, Houtouwan was once home to a fishing community. In the 1990s, however, much of the population left as the fishing routes dried up and opportunities arose on the mainland. Left completely to Mother Nature’s designs, Houtouwan has been transformed into a truly fascinating ghost village over the years, like the set of a horror movie!
