This is the largest annual human migration in the world. It’s known as Chunyun (春运), or the Spring Festival travel rush. It happens every year in China around Chinese New Year, as millions of people head home to spend the holiday period with their families.

Pictured: Shenzhen train station 1 week before Chinese New Year.

We got up at 5am to watch the sunrise over a sea of clouds. A beautiful experience, and one of my favourites in China so far. But not sure if I’ll be getting up that early again for a sunrise anytime soon!

Watching the sunset over the Forbidden City in Bei

Watching the sunset over the Forbidden City in Beijing 💛🌅

✨ Jingshan Park (景山公园) has the best panoramic views of the Forbidden City

✨ There’s a relatively short climb up the hill (70m) via steps to get to the top

✨ Entry to the park is ¥2 (free for children)

✨ It gets quite crowded around sunset (don’t expect zen vibes here), but people usually take their photos and leave, so you can get a good spot if you’re patient.

📌 Save for your China trip!

Did you know that the Vikings came to Scotland?

This is the Brough of Birsay, a small tidal island in Orkney. It’s located just off the Orkney mainland, and can only be visited at low tide. The Viking (or Norse) ruins here date back to the 9th Century.

In fact, the Orkney Islands were part of the Kingdom of Norway for several hundred years.
