Beijing musings

China was a whole new world..
a mixture between ecclectic modernization and in-your-face sorta tradtions.
Besides the incessant spittings from the Chinese pple,
and the weird tongue-rolling Beijing accent,
we were constantly thrilled and amused
by these true to their hearts Chinese.

First thing first, FOOD!
Pekin duck and spicy chicken!

the signboard reads DOG FOOD for sale.
i didnt try that!

the street where our backpacker hostel was located,
is part of their traditional neighbourhood hutong,
i loved that quaint traditional feeling.

in the Forbidden City

No offense to his modesty,

climbing the majestic Great Wall.

we were in the mood to be pampered,
tried out Imperial Cuisine at an Imperial Restaurant.

we were lucky to not have been washing their plates...

Tiananmen Square
