Finally free time in Beijing..


Finally finished wif the Wharton event last nite.. was totally gd.. & today, we spent sme time tourin Tsinghua & Bei Dao Uni, the top few Uni in China.. seems dat it's a past time for local tourists to visit the Unis when they r touring Beijing as we saw lots of tour buses in the uni campus.. wonder when NUS will have such a scene too.. haha..

took a nite train to Tianjin for our next leg of tour.. really feels like i'm doin lots of travellin around for the past few days.. hee..

In Tianjin!!


Reached Tianjin abt 9+ & had dinner at sme chinese restaurant near our hotel, Holiday Inn.. basically, we were jus walkin around w/o any destination.. explorin the city at nite.. luckily the weather's cool, so even when i'm wearin a jacket, the weather's still gd & comfy..

Also saw a church while walkin around & took a pic of it.. the lightings for the church was so nice.. u wun have guessed it's in China or smethng closed to it.. hee..

In Beijing...



Took an early mornin flight to Beijing for the 2nd leg of the Wharton School's visit.. reached Beijing abt 10+ & it was good.. the only main thng i wanna complain abt is the terrible traffic jams dat r everywhere.. the pt is the roads are wide & proper with less cars as compared to Shanghai, but yet Shanghai's traffic is not as bad..

Anyway, since i'm in Beijing. i die die also have to go & see certain stuff or not it'll be a wasted trip... so since the Wharton program will only start on thurs, i had a day to go see the forbidden palace and the great wall.. haha...

The forbidden palace is big.. even after spending like 3.5hrs inside there, i still haven't walk the whole place & the fact's sme places r off limits to visitors too..

The great wall is really GREAT!! wah.. totally nice view of the city & i was so tired when i walked upwards.. had to be really careful when u r walkin down.. look at the pics & u will know..

Ended the day by havin Beijing's best Peking Duck at Hyatt Hotel.. wah.. the skin is totally power.. haha.. nice.. & the other food was fantastic too.. we spent like 1700rmb (dat's abt S$300+ & v ex by china standard since u can get a decent meal for abt 20rmb..)
