Long long time ago in Shenzhen... October 2002


Top of the tower, facing west. Just realized the two large
buildings closest to the bottom of the picture are in my
other blog from 2007. And the reddish and blue spot at
the large crossroads is also there.


Facing another direction.


This was such a long time ago. Waxing nostalgic...

Scenery from Hangzhou West Lake, May 2006









Ling Yin Temple in Hangzhou, May 2006


Front gate.


Happy holiday season.


Main hall. Several halls stand one after the other
going uphill.


Burning incense.


Luck by touching a Chinese character. I saw young people
going for love related, students for learning related, older
people for health...

Climbing Mount Lao (Laoshan) in Qingdao, early spring 2007


Daoist temple on the mountain. The monks were
practicing with a spear.


The monks' satellite dish.


Mist rising in a pass. Below the mist is water.


Path down through the mist.


A town and the sea.

Beijing fortnight 3


This was in spring. I was away from Wangfujing for a while.
Suddenly the whole block behind Beijing Hotel was gone.
A weird empty space, was so used to the old sight...!
