**Fan Jinshi：Daughter of Dunhuang**

She spends almost 60 years taking care of Dunhuang. People call her the “Daughter of Dunhuang”.
On May 4，2023，“Daughter of Dunhuang” Fan Jinshi returned to Peking University and brought back 10 million RMB donations to set up the Fan Jinshi Education Fund（基金）to support the research of Dunhuang Studies at Peking University.

The place I want to visit
Beijing，one of the biggest cities in our country，is the place I want to visit.
There are several reasons why I would like to visit Beijing. First，Beijing is the capital of China，and has a history of more than 3，000 years. It has been the capital of many dynasties. Second，there are many historical buildings，such as the Great Wall and the Summer Palace. There are also some new stadiums，including the Bird's Nest and the Water Cube，which were built for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.
I am really looking forward to going there and visiting all the wonderful places. At the same time，I hope Beijing will be more and more beautiful.
