Today's tour took me to Tienanmen Square, The Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven, and the Summer Palace.
Tienanmen Square:
I'm going to be honest here, this is probably one out of a handful of colorful things I saw in Beijing. The city itself is very grey. |
Speaks for itself |
The Forbidden City:
The Temple of Heaven:
The Summer Palace and Summer Palace Lake:
Much of the fresh water pearls found in Beijing are cultivated from oysters that live in this man made lake |
Miles of covered walkways built for the 'Dragon Lady' and the emperor |
