The 2008 Olympic Venue in Beijing.
In 2022, Beijing will be the only city to have hosted a summer and winter Olympics.
Below shows that visitors still want to visit this area and get the photos...like us....who didn't go when the games were there.
Sadly, that is not fog on my photos. It is actually the air pollution that plagues Beijing and Shanghai as well.
Getting our photo taken.....lol.
The Chinese people have it right...carry an umbrella for rain and for the very hot sun.
Having fun above and below with the mascots.
The 'Bird's Nest' as the stadium is affectionately known.
I like this shot of the very old with the very new.
The Pang Hotel....a 7 Star hotel that is designed to look like a Chinese Dragon?
We definitely didn't stay there?
Fun in the park.
We now are heading to a tea demonstration nearby.
Ginsing is in the glass jar. Great for digestion.
Preparing the tea.
Rose tea....literally roses. Quite nice.
No big porcelain mugs. Small cups with no handles.
Lychee tea...very good. Excellent for anemia.
Fruit tea above. Some of our group thought it was for them to eat? Lol.
Super for indigestion.
Gorgeous tea pots to purchase.
We bought tea.....and a lot of it.
Yummy.
Long day....heading to the hotel.
But what a day.
