[Updated] Win Tickets, Magna Carta in Beijing on World Tour, Oct 14
[Update 10/12 2.45pm] The Magna Carta has made a last minute move and will now be on exhibition for one day only (October 14) at the Residence of the British Ambassador at 15 Guanghua Lu. While it will still be free, due to the location, visitors will have to pre-register.
There will be three slots, 5-6pm, 6-7pm, and 7-8pm. Please RSVP to beijing.rsvp@fco.gov.uk with your passport number or Chinese ID number, your full name, and which slot you'd like to attend before Tuesday October 13, 9pm.
We are still giving away five pairs of tickets to a closed talk with experts between 12-1pm, with the competition closing at noon Tuesday October 13.
All you have to do is email the answer to the following question to win@thebeijinger.com:
When were all four original 1215 charters displayed together at the British Library, and why?
The Magna Carta is a charter agreed by King John of England at Runnemede, near Windsor, on June 15, 1215. It was drafted to make peace between the king, who was incredibly unpopular, and a group of rebel barons, promising protection of church rights, protection of barons from illegal imprisonment, access to justice, and limitations on feudal payments to the king.
Good luck!

Re: [Updated] Win Tickets, Magna Carta in Beijing on World...
Just to clarify you say it's only at the British Embassy for 1 day in bold letters and then you go on to say it's at Renmin University for 3 days. So will it be at Renmin University as well or only the British Embassy for 1 day?
