Beijing, China

[ptrautne]

I figured I would show everyone my pictures from my vacation in Beijing. I spent 7 days in Beijing and got to see many beautiful places. If you have a chance to go don't pass it up. Beijing is the cleanest city I have ever been in and is huge.

why did you post this in the local forum instead of the photo gallery forum?
if you think beijing is clean, you are wrong... it's the cleanest in china, but not in the world... the air sucks... try being there in spring with the sandstorms!

the cable car up to the great wall is a big rip off... the tram/train is cheaper on the other side of the mountain! I got suckered the same way and found out after I walked the 2 miles to the other side to find out I got ripped off!
cheapest way was to go way the hell to the other section where only a few people go to... I was so mad because it was so crowded it was hard to take pics... plus the sandstorm!

I was there in april and I still haven't finished post processing the pics!
I'll have them up though!

If you think Beijing is dirty don't go to Baltimore, New York, Manila, or Bangkok. They were much dirtier then Beijing. What section should I have posted it in? I must have missed the other section.

If anyone is looking to go to Beijing and wants a tour guide, below is the link for the guide I used. Me, my sister, and her boy friend were happy with her service.
