Trip Journal - Beijing

Continuing with my trip journal or should i say photo journal, hahaha... We took at least a hundred pic a day... Well, went as 260 pics during our 4th day, hahhaa.. So in these few posting, i shall let the photos do most of the talking, hee hee :D

Beijing Day 2: "Food Overdose"
Weather: Very Cold
Area: Wangfujing & Xidan

Okie, another day spent at Wangfujing. We visited 'Forbidden City' in the morning and dropped by Xidan (a shopping area) for lunch. Forbidden city is nice historial place you should go but to be honest, the palace all look very repeative. Few steps after the gate, there will be a palace and then you go through another gate, again you see a similar palace and it goes on and on.... Though of cos there are stories tagged behind each palace but from photo itself, you really can't tell the diff. What a coincidence, Gavin met his colleagues there!






































In the evening, we went to try the well-known Peking Roast Duck, 全聚德 (Quan Ju De). As we had very full steamboat lunch, i couldn't eat much though it's really tasty. And so, my dear Mr. G finish almost half of the duck which he ended up.......... puking during the night!! Arghh... There goes our 3rd day where we spent almost the day resting.












Beijing Day 3: "Check-in to New Hotel! ~Swissotel Beijing"
Weather: Still Very Cold
Area: Dongcheng & Silk Market


We didn't hang out too much on our 3rd day, basically pack up and moved on to our second hotel :)
