About this episode

A square, you say? Touring a rectangle seems a little more stimulating, perhaps? This is not just any four-sided box. This is the center of Beijing. A place full of history and full of people. Now it's so big, you may just stumble across it, but we're thinking you might need a little more help. Since you've already learned where Changan Jie is from Pimsleur, let ChinesePod take you the rest of the way, in this Mandarin lesson. Episode link: https://www.chinesepod.com/0909
