Beijing - 22 October 2011

This morning we were taken to Ti'anamen Square and the Forbidden City. The number of people in both these places was insane.

After spending all morning in both these places we were taken to the Hutong Village where we were provided with a traditional lunch in a family home and heard some of the family's stories. After lunch we took a rickshaw ride through the Hutong Village.

It was then on to the Temple of Heaven before heading back to the hotel for a rest.

Dinner was (you guessed it) traditional Chinese (although by Beijing it was starting to be a bit more like the Chinese we experience at home) and then it was off to a Kung Fu show.

Here are some pictures from today:
