Have you ever visited this place? I have heard they have very nice food and heavy transportation and so many cool mass events.

I was planning to go there for a trip but I have heard bad reviews from the past.

Also I was thinking to extend trip to the Xinjiang province to see the wonderful cultural and religion diversity they are famous for. However some folks tell me this changed recently?

OP have you ever been to Kent State? Or Cobbs Creek, Philadelphia? I hear they're lovely destinations.

Ya. I learned about those in public school.

No, but sometimes I have a dinner with my wife and I want to say 'Honey, can you give me the salt?' but instead I say 'Fuck the evil chinese government'.

Slip of a tongue

Well that's kind of a weird quirk to have.

No but I've visited Dachau. I think that's enough for mass event locations for me

I went there in 2009. I was too young to appreciate the culture. Locals were busy selling tourists goods and I wasn’t even sure what to soak in at the square.
