Welcome to Linda's and Garr's China pictures. |
|
|
| The pedestrian underpass at the right is on the route we took to Tienanmen Square rather than crossing the road at left. This is the Tienanmen Square side of the road. |
| Tienanmen Square and one of the gates that were once in an outer wall around the Forbidden City, the center of government in former times and where the last Emperors lived. |
|
| Tienanmen Square, Beijing, China. (Bei = north, jing = capitol) | ||
|
| This is near where our bus stopped in Ba Da Ling, where we went to see The Great Wall. The arch at right is where we went to get tickets and climb up on the Wall itself. | ||
|

|
| Gate of Supreme Harmony, the first great building we saw upon entering the Forbidden City. This is where the Emperor met with officials. | ||
|
| Beyond the Gate of Supreme Harmony is this building, the Hall of Supreme Harmony. It is where the Emperor worked and prepared for meetings with officials. | ||
|
| Don't know what this is. |
| Statue of an interesting looking beast. |
