Pictures and Fun Facts about China
I'm taking a break from ranting about tour busing and instead I'll give you chance to see some pictures and sites from Beijing, Xi'an and Hong Kong... Here are some classic sites from Beijing. A building in the Forbbiden Palace is first and then a shot of the Heavenly Temple.
Beijing is a massive city and construction was rampant where ever we drove, buildings such as the one to the left are everywhere. They also don't use our mundane 'box style architecture' either.
1. Here we have the Terra Cotta warriors found buried in Xi'an.
2. An area in Xi'an that is being prepared for development (probably because of the next Olympics), while in the mean time it is used as a market for locals.
3. Alice and I in an nice Red, While strip background composition.
4. An Electronic shop in Beijing (across the street) that tried to sell us a 512 memory stick for $70 Canadian dollars. (You should be able to find it for less then half that amount... (and a boy in the foreground waiting for a bus).
5. Finally, we have a show that we saw in Xi'an with traditional Chinese music and dancers.
