| The Tiananmen from across street |
|  | Tiananmen Square This huge square could be place 1 million people. You can fly a KITE here since this place is a public place. You can also get in to the building which also open for public until 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Tiananmen and Forbidden City are just acroos the street. If you wanna cross it, there's a underground tunnel. Please remember that TAXI cannot ride here coz this place is important place. So you must walk, using bus, or using subway. |
The Oriental Plaza The Oriental Plaza is a complex -- 3 blocks from Tiananmen/Forbidden City. This is a one stop place: hotel, apartment, and shopping centre. From this place, you can go straight to Wang Fu Jing -- a shopping street like Orchard Road in Singapore. Cheap! |  | | Stairs front Hyatt Oriental Plaza |

| Tree outside the Great Wall |
|  | At the Great Wall Me and my bro goes to 2 side of the wall, the easy way and hard way. the easy way was full with people. not good to make an art photo :) so we move to the other side. This is what we get! my favorite photo :)
Anyway, there are many "terminal" of Great Wall. My place is near a hotel (I don't remember the name, sorry) and really near to Mongolia Line-zone. other spot was a little near to Ming Thomb. |
