You can read 旅游 on a travel app and spot 飞机 on a departure board, but when it is time to write these characters by hand — on a visa form, a hotel card, or a class test — the strokes do not come. This free printable worksheet gives you guided 田字格 (tián zì gé) tracing practice for ten HSK 3 travel and sightseeing words so your hand learns what your eyes already recognize.
The page covers vocabulary from Week 9 of SayMei's HSK 3 course — trips, transport, and what you pack for a journey. You will trace and write travel essentials like 旅游 (lǚ yóu, tourism), 旅行 (lǚ xíng, to travel), 飞机 (fēi jī, airplane), 火车 (huǒ chē, train), 护照 (hù zhào, passport), and 行李 (xíng lǐ, luggage), along with terms for hotels, airports, maps, and the subway. A full word list appears in the table below.
Each word sits in a 田字格 grid with pinyin printed above. Trace the guided strokes first to build muscle memory for stroke order and character proportions. Then move to the blank grids and write each character from memory. Say each word aloud as you write to reinforce the link between sound and shape. Print the page directly or download it as a PDF — no signup needed. For extra writing space, use blank printable 田字格 writing grid paper for free-writing drills.
These words match the HSK 3 lessons hub page, so you can pair handwriting with speaking and listening practice.

Each character appears in a 田字格 (tián zì gé) grid with pinyin above it. You start by tracing the guided strokes to learn correct stroke order and proportions. Once your hand has the feel of the character, you move to blank grids on the same row and write it from memory. Saying the word aloud as you write strengthens the connection between sound and character shape.
This worksheet is built for HSK 3 learners. The ten words come from the HSK 3.0 vocabulary lists and match Week 9 of SayMei's course, which focuses on travel and tourism. If you are still building toward HSK 3, pair this handwriting practice with the speaking and listening exercises in SayMei's HSK 3 course.
