Unbelieveable Beijing 9-29 to 10-1










We anticipated much in Beijing and we believed that Tiananmen Square would be impressive, but both Beijing and the Square exceeded our expectations. This moving statue of the Chinese people is but a small part of the Square but the most memorable. Then it was on to the Forbidden City, where again I expected beauty but I got more than I could have dream for. The beauty and the wonder just kept on. We could have given dozens of pictures, probably more heavenly than this one, but in the background is the palace and there were crowds of people, but behind us were hundreds of buildings supporting 10,000 people who were there for the emperor.
