Beijing - Zhangjiakou high-speed train
“京張高鐵”——它來了！
Now, around 30 high-speed trains serve from Beijing to Zhangjiakou. Operating from 6:05 to 20:48, these trains leave from Beijing North Railway Station or Qinghe Railway Station to Zhangjiakou Railway Station. Although not very long, this railway travels from inside the Great Wall to outside the wall. Therefore the scenery changes a lot, from the farming area to grassland. Along the way, the scenery, including lakes, mountains, flowers and the Great Wall, is definitely a feast for the eyes!
feast /fiːst/ n. 盛宴；宴會；節日
eg. The king promised to hold a great feast for all his people.
