  • A quite usual scene in Beijing and the rest of China.
    Chinese children up to 3 years just don't wear dippers... or anything else.
    Shocking at first, but then you get used to it and apparently the kids are feeling just fine. It is quite practical too, mums don't have to change dippers they just lift their kid and... out it goes.

  • Hmmm...
    Is that funny or is it funny?
    Taking pictures - Asian style.
    And don't be surrprised, if they ask you to take a picture with them... and their mom, and dad, and brother, a cousin, a friend...
    It's just a national custom...
