Off to Honkers & China!
Much Later - Hong Kong!
We started our visit to Hong Kong with a cruise around the harbour!
We had a couple of visits to the world-renowned Ladies Night Market in Monkok. It lived up to the hype, a truly enjoyable and memorable place.
We also did a day tour which included the awesome Stanley Markets!
Off to China!
We'd focussed our visit around Beijing as we thought we'd get to jam more into the time we had available to us.
Beijing traffic! Interesting :) Road Lanes appear to be completely Czytaj więcej
Our first visit was to see the Great Wall of China. It was bitterly cold, but the skies were clear. Still some snow on the ground.
An amazing piece of engineering and well worth the drive to see it.
Next stop was the beautiful Temple of Heaven back in Beijing.
The infamous Tiananmen Square. Could not believe how many people were queued up to see the square. Quite a sobering presence to the place.
The Forbidden Palace was really cool! I remembered watching a movie, The Last Emperor, years before and to see the Palace in real was pretty special!
The excess is unbelievable!
