    Where did you go this summer vacation? Perhaps you have visited some top universities. If so, you are not alone.

    This summer vacation, thousands of people from across the country traveled to famous universities like Tsinghua University, Peking University and Fudan University. For example, about 6,000 visitors visited Tsinghua University every day on vacation. Most of them were junior high school students and senior high school students with their parents.  With more and more people coming to these universities, it usually took many hours to enter them.

    "Tsinghua University opens to the visitors at 8:30 am." a guard (保安) told China Daily. "However, many people start to wait in line at3 to 4 am. If people come at 6 o'clock, it may be too late and they can only enter in the afternoon.

    "University tourism" is popular because of the long histories and special cultures of these famous universities. Also, many parents hope their children can learn something more from the trip and study harder after that.

    "I brought my son here as soon as I finished my job," Mrs. Zhang, a mother of a 14-year-old boy, told China Daily. "And I hope my son will go into a top university in the future."
