Almost at the finish line! After appreciating nature’s beauty, today we’re exploring our local communities by learning names for Places around Town (城镇周边地点 – chéngzhèn zhōubiān dìdiǎn). Knowing these helps in navigating and talking about everyday errands and activities. This is key Mandarin for daily life.
