Beijing Photos

Posted by chris g on September 9, 2007

Here are just a few photos from our trip to Beijing. Unfortunately, I had camera issues so I am unable to post pictures from the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square and the hutongs. I hope you can forgive me.

Natty, Sarah, Katie, Alex and myself at the top of the ancient astrological observatory.

Driving to and from wherever this road takes them.

Cars and bikers are separated by the white fence, but chaos ensues at the intersection ahead.

Beijing = cars, construction, capitalism.

Daily exercise and a chance to show off his skills are all this man needs to make him happy.

One of Beijing's busy subway stations.

'The next station is: Chongwenmen Station.'

The watchtower marked the south-eastern corner of Beijing during the Ming Dynasty.

Beijing West Train Station, this immense building welcomes train passengers into the capital city.

Thousands of people crowd the surroundings of the Beijing West Train Station.

People rush through the terminal vying for their place in line and hoping they did not miss their train.
