Beijing

20-28th November

Beijing is a cool place, probably one of the best places we visited in the whole time we've been away. There's plenty of stuff to see and just dealing with the cultural differences keeps you busy enough, mostly it's a bit of laugh but it can also be frustrating. We took in most of the big tourist sights and spent some time just messing about. It was actually the longest time we've spent anywhere in the last 5 months.

Self Portrait on the Great Wall, about an hour later the sky was thick with pollution

The Hutong where we were staying, bikes are the main way of getting shit done in China
