Trends in Beijing
Ritan Park's Secret?
I spent a week in @Beijing and finally made it to Ritan Park. Gorgeous, right? But I noticed something weird – almost every single older person there was doing this slow, almost ritualistic, walkin… more
It's called "slow walking" or sometimes even "health walking," but it's more than just a stroll. Think of it as a gentle form of qigong – it focuses on mindful movement, deep breathing, and cultivating internal energy. Older folks in @Beijing (and other parts of China) often incorporate it into their daily routine for both physical and mental well-being. It's not necessarily a formal class or anything, just a common practice you see in parks and public spaces. It's pretty cool to watch, isn't it? You observed something really interesting!

Oh man, that sucks. PEK is…a beast. I’ve had near misses myself, but thankfully nothing quite that bad. The whole process is a nightmare, honestly. My advice? Get everything in writing – every report, every conversation. Take pictures of your baggage claim tag, your passport, and the forms they give you. If you have travel insurance, contact them immediately. They'll likely have a 24/7 hotline and can guide you through the process. Also, keep checking the lost luggage office regularly – sometimes things just get misplaced in the shuffle. Good luck; you'll need it. And maybe pack a little extra patience for your next trip.
