我很想去參觀巧克力工廠，一定很好玩！

The chocolate factory I really want to visit is called The Barry Callebaut Chocolate Box in Belgium. Belgium 就是比利時, and it is a country in Europe.

And this chocolate factory is very special because it is the largest chocolate factory in the world.
比利時這家工廠是全世界最大的巧克力工廠。

It's as big as 12 soccer fields!
有十二個足球場那麼大！

That is huge! If you had to run from one end of the factory to the other that would take you a long time. And you would be very, very tired!

This factory also makes a lot of chocolate. They make so much chocolate because they send it to 140 countries around the world.
這一家工廠的產品送到世界各地的140個國家。

The building even looks like a box of chocolate!

或許我可以成為巧克力師傅。

Then I can eat all the chocolate that I want, all the time! Yum!
