我的彩色世界

Food in Beijing

During the trip, we didnt really try exotic stuffs like fried scorpions, cocoons, cicada, lizards.. too scary.. don't believe?

Stewed mushrooms

Hot plate Yak (cow) with potatoes

Tibetian Naan, wah its quite a mouthful actually..

Chicken in wine, its cooked with the pot edges sealed with flour

Entertainment during dinner is great too!

See how happy they are, clapping along.

Cold plate golden mushrooms

Asparagus, shrimps and corn.

Shui Zhu Yu - Its spicy and full of bones. but its nice!

Smelly beancurd!

'Dog don't care' buns.

Beijing's most famous roast duck restaurant.

Buildings in Beijing

Generally, the buildings of Beijing are rather colourful. They seem to like neon lights along the perimeters of their buildings.

On the other side of the city, one of the few remaining Hutongs left.

Yeah, this is the world famous Bird Nest. The national stadium of Beijing.

Just beside the bird nest, its the Water Cube.

Personally, I like this water cube better than the bird nest.

This is the CCTV building in Beijing, it has an interesting structure.

Just beside it, a building razed to nothing by fire during the olympics. I heard they have to pay 27b dollars as compensation.

Sights

Ok finally, here are some candid shots that I took along the way on my trip..

Thats all folks =)

Went on a visit to Esplanade. Ended up helping many pple take photos with their compacts within my short 15 mins there. I was handed sticky cameras and I felt disgusted.

Eventually I took quite a lot of photos, but I ended up only with 4. The rest, cannot make it. So here are the 4 pics!
