The now, next generation after our previous guide, who told us NOW GET OUT are the younger group. She caught my eye as she was texting while holding the team flag. She also has the freedom to dress and express herself to the way she feels.
Most of the visitors to the Forbidden City are of Asian origin. The massiveness of the palace was impressive.
There are so many layers of dynasties and after awhile they all blend into one another.
By today's standards, the throne is dingy and dark and it makes me wonder if they did that to conceal the fact of ageing. A deity, dressed in the best of silks to remain forever young.
The artwork was incredible but meant for eyes of only a few.
The massiveness of the space was as if they were expecting a large number of people.
The exteriors of most of the building had been spruced up for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.
The garden and bridges are quaint but after awhile it all get to be similar and I spotted this child and sympathised with him.
