the first dogs we saw in beijing. they're big fans of pomeranians.
temple of heaven
this building has no right angles.
more temple, more heaven
people like to come here to the temple, to partake in playing the flute,

or sing and dance.
the echo wall. self explanatory.
really big rock.
this thing was built without any nails. how did they do it?
great wall child.
a rare opportune shot without a hustle of people.
