Phase II: Sense of Place

Upload image (s) here: Look at this picture,this is a beautiful night view of the city.There are so many high-rise buildings.What a beautiful place! I come from Beijing.Beijing's night view is the same as this picture's. One day,i went to another place to travel. I went back Beijing at night.When i was in the plane,I look out the window,at that time,i saw a beautiful Beijing with a wonderful night view.I was obsessed with Beijing again.That was a brightly Beijing.I love Beijing.

This picture is about Qianmen in Beijing.This an old street,many people like shopping at here.Everyone knows Beijing is the capital of China,and China has many population so Beijing also has lots of population.i think Beijing is a united family. Chinese people is very helpful and friendly.People in Beijing also very nice.Although Beijing is very lively ,it is kind of crowed.

Use these questions to help you determine which picture shows someone else why your “place” is so special to you.
 * Does a scenic picture represent the beauty you believe that your town has?
 * Does a picture of a group of people represent and show a warmth and friendliness that your town has?
 * Does a statue or building convey the feeling of history that makes your place important and unique?
 * Is there a cultural event that represents the values of your home location?

What are your initial thoughts about how your image addresses the questions above? Later, you will be working with the members of your group to create a travel package that includes visits to each group member's home location (see Phase II)
