Day 9 is a day that we took it easy because we will be travelling to Xian the next day.

We went to a noodle place called Malan to have breakfast. I had a bowl of lamb noodle. We love the handmade noodle here which is tasty by itself. There is also a marinated egg in the noodle.

Ben had his favourite sour and spicy beef noodle. The breakfast cost RMB40 (less than CAD7).

After breakfast, we just strolled along Wangfujing. Behind me is the St Joseph’s Church or also known as Wangfujing Church. This is a historic Catholic church. This is a popular place for wedding photos, skate boarding and community dance.

Before we headed back to our hotel, we went to pick up Ben’s laundry from a laundry shop. The laundry service is RMB10 for each piece which include washing and ironing.
