Dear Mike,
I’m very glad to tell you something about Beijing and Shanghai.
Beijing is the capital city of China. The population of Beijing is more than 21 million. It covers an area of about 16,410 square kilometres. There are lots of places of interest in Beijing, such as the Great Wall and the Summer Palace.
Shanghai is a famous modern city in China. It has a population of over 24 million. It covers about 6,340 square kilometres. In 2010, Shanghai held the World Expo. It was a great success. Have you ever heard of it?
I hope you can visit China some day.
Yours,
Wang Hong
