The oldest Catholic church in Beijing

May 15th - Beijing

Today we attended a Catholic service at The Church of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary. It is the oldest Catholic church in Beijing. The architecture was intricate and beautiful. The service we attended was given in English and it was a lot like Catholic services in America. In the afternoon we went shopping at a large indoor market where we bargained for clothing, jewelry and other souvenirs. The bargaining process is an interesting one; the vendors are very forceful and are not hesitant to physically pull you into their stations and offer you ridiculously high prices for their goods. You can then haggle with the vendors to bring the price down so you can walk away with a fairly cheap t-shirt, knick-knack, etc.

  8. It sounds like you had a fascinating day in Beijing! The description of The Church of the Immaculate Conception, the oldest Catholic church in the city, paints a vivid picture of its intricate and beautiful architecture. It's interesting to learn that the Catholic service you attended was similar to ones in America, even though it was held in a historical and culturally significant location.

    Bargaining at the market must have been a unique experience! While the vendors' tactics might seem forceful at first, understanding the cultural context and navigating the process sounds like a valuable learning experience. It's also interesting to see how you managed to score some good deals on souvenirs!
