Driven by ‘deep love’: China family’s 3,500km drive for son’s university marks life milestone

A family from Zaozhuang, Shandong province, undertook a 3,500km road trip to escort their son to his new university in Karamay, Xinjiang. The son had recently graduated from high school and was admitted to Xinjiang Second Medical College. His father, Geng, drove a seven-seater MPV with six family members, including the son, his mother, older sister, her husband, and the son's 80-year-old grandfather. They departed on August 20 and arrived at the university four days later. To commemorate the journey, the father spray-painted the vehicle's back window with a message celebrating the move from Zaozhuang to Karamay.
