Sophie Chen is a 14-year-old girl from Taiwan. When she was 6 years old, she did something amazing! She finished a 2,100-kilometer bike journey from Xi’an, the capital city of Shaanxi, to Turpan (吐鲁番), a city in Xinjiang, with her parents. It

took them two and a half months. Sophie became the youngest child in the world to have biked along the Silk Road. Chinese novel Journey to the West inspired her to do so.

That is not all. Sophie wrote a book about the long journey with her father Jack Chen, a professional outdoor explorer. On April 26, the book’s English version Biking the Silk Road: 6-year-old Sophie’s Fantasy Tour came out in Beijing. New World Press published it.

Now Sophie studies at Ta Hwa High School. She sees the journey as a special experience in her life. She became more hardworking and learned history and geography better because of it.

On the way, she met many friendly local people and saw amazing things. She even picked some grapes! “The grapes in Xinjiang were so big and sweet. I have never seen them in Taiwan,” she said.

Still, it was not easy. “The biggest challenge was the bad weather and road conditions,” she said. She wrote in the book, “It was terribly hot in the Gobi Desert. I almost got sunstroke (中暑) and could never have enough to drink.”

Mobile payment going global

In addition to sightseeing, shopping is a popular activity for many Chinese tourists when they go abroad. Their huge buying power has made them become known as “walking wallets”. However, thanks to mobile payment services such as We-Chat Pay and Ali-pay, perhaps

“walking e-wallets” would be a better nickname .

According to Xinhua News Agency, We-Chat Pay’s overseas service is available for Chinese tourists in 12 countries and regions, including Thailand, South Korea, Japan and Canada. Thailand’s Songkran Festival (宋干节) in every April is the most popular time for Chinese tourists to visit the country. During this year’s festival, many Chinese visitors used We-Chat Pay in convenience stores, duty-free shops and restaurants. And the service is not only available in Thailand’s capital, Bangkok. Many places in Chiang Mai in northern Thailand and Phuket in southern Thailand also accept We-Chat Pay.
