Long ago, many cities in the world had high walls. The walls kept the enemy out. Soldiers stood on top of them day and night. When they saw an army far away, they made a big fire, and everyone in the city knew.
Some of these walls are more than twenty centuries old. Today they are quiet and beautiful in the sun. People no longer need them for war, but many families walk there on Sundays and take pictures.
Open Tuesday to Sunday, 9:00-17:00. Closed on Monday.
A free guide is available at ten and at two every day. The room on your left is closed this month. If you lose something, please ask at the front desk.
Hi Peter,
How are you? I am writing a report about ancient China for history class. I need some help.
You said your father has a big collection of old coins. Can I see them next Saturday? I want to take a few pictures for my report.
I will ride my scooter to your house at two o'clock. Please reply before Friday. If that day is not OK, we can change the time.
Your friend,
Amy
The museum counted its visitors for four months.
| Month | Adults | Students |
|---|---|---|
| March | 1200 | 900 |
| April | 1500 | 2100 |
| May | 1100 | 800 |
| June | 1300 | 600 |
Many schools visit in April. In June students are busy with exams, so the number is small.
