Beijing Experience
Posted by girlie on April 11, 2009
The flight to Beijing was good. It took us almost 5 hours to reach our destination. When we got there, I was really amazed. I so love the place, it was clean, the trees lining the streets was just awesome. It’s one of the most beautiful places I’ve been too (kasi konte pa lang eh). Honestly, I find Beijing more beautiful than the places I’ve been to in the USA (no offense meant here). First stop after lunch was at the Tiananmen Square, I remember this place because of the massacre that happened in 1989. But that was never mentioned by our tourist guide. Instead she told us that Tiananmen Square is the largest open square in the world.
Behind us is the Gate of Heavenly Peace.
Much as we wanted to see the remains of Mao Zedong, it was not part of the tour package we got. It would have been a wonderful experience. FIL was able to see his body when they toured Beijing a couple of years back.

hahahaa funny tour guide! But you could ask in whisper about that moment — they can stammer their answer and they never looked straight into your eyes. Ma feel mo yong takot nila.
Nice pics you have here — it reminds me of my visit in those parts in 2002.
It looks like spring has just started kasi parang gloomy pa ang sky or is that a smog…
Where’s your great wall pic? Am sure you had fun there.

I was at Tiannamen Square too many years back. I like the Great Wall the best, the scenery is superb. You look as cool as ever… and it looks like your girl is following mummy’s footsteps too.
