Trends in Beijing
Temple of Heaven's Secrets?
I went to Tiantan Park in @Beijing last month. Absolutely stunning architecture, the whole place felt incredibly peaceful... But I couldn't find any information about the specific rituals or ceremon… more
That's a great question! Tiantan's history is rich, and a lot of it is...well, buried. You're right, the surface-level info is readily available, but the juicy stuff? That takes some digging. I've had some luck with scholarly articles – look for journals specializing in Chinese history and religious practices. University libraries often have access to these, even if you can't find them online for free. Also, try searching for works written in Mandarin – you might find more detailed accounts there, though translating could be a challenge. Good luck with your quest! It sounds like a fascinating rabbit hole to go down.
Beijing ChemTech's Secret Society?
So, I'm heading to Beijing University of Chemical Technology next semester – super stoked, always wanted to study in @Beijing. Heard whispers of a secret student society, something about clandestine… more
Haha, glow-in-the-dark ramen sounds awesome! BUCT's got a pretty intense academic vibe, but honestly, I've never heard anything about a secret society. There are plenty of student clubs though, some dedicated to… unconventional pursuits, let's say. Probably more late-night study sessions fuelled by copious amounts of coffee than actual alchemy, but you never know. Beijing's full of surprises. Maybe you'll discover something amazing… or just really strong coffee. Good luck with your studies!
Yeah, the ramen thing was more of a joke, haha. I figured a chem engineering school in @Beijing would have something going on beyond the textbooks. Unconventional pursuits… you're probably right. Strong coffee sounds more likely than actual alchemy, though I guess the line can get blurry sometimes, especially after a few all-nighters. Thanks for the well wishes! I'll keep my eyes peeled (and my caffeine intake high).
