this is the day 1...
Date: 03/04/09
Time: 9pm
We reached the train station at Wu Chang to board train straight to Beijing.
and WOW!
the train station is packed with people!
it was scary,
this is much more crowded than the mrt stations at peak hours...
>.<
and on the train,
I was shocked that the bunk is so small!!
I can't even sit up straight while on the bed...
lolx...
Wanyan... She hit her head 3 times while on the bed... this show's that the bunk is really small and squeezy!
Lying on the bed... too lazy to climb down...
Date: 04/04/09
Time: 8am
We reached Beijing at 7am and the tour guide took us to Tiananmen Square.
Man, it's really big!
and there were lots of people too!!
the BIG Tiananmen Sqaure...
Mao Zedong portrait...
We managed to see the body of Mao Zedong.
after queuing up for around 2 hrs...
there is no pictures as we were not allowed to bring cameras in...
the body was lying in the middle of the hall,
with security guards standing at the side...
the whole hall was silent (quite lahx...) and solemn...
though the whole process is not more than 5 mins,
I think this is an interesting experience to see the body of Mao.
Next stop,
we went to the Imperial Palace.
again, lots of people...
I always thought that the Imperial Palace is magnificent and beautiful...
but when I reached the Imperial Palace,
it's different from what I think...
and the whole journey was kind of frustrating
cuz there were too many people,
and I could not see the structure of each hall...
>.<
The big door to the Imperial Palace.
the floor with 500 years of history... (don't know true or not... this was what the tour guide said...)
So damn sunny! the weather at Beijing was almost the same in Singapore and I was wearing long sleeves... what the...
me and cuishan!
自拍-ing...
One of the hall in the palace...
In the Imperial Garden...
Finally, out from the crowded place...
the lake outside the Imperial Palace...
Me!! ^^
and Day 1 ended after going out to buy souvenirs at the Wang Fu Jing Street...
it's not bad actually,
with many things and food...
and I bought some souvenirs there...
heex... ^^
Coming right up,
day 2 at Beijing...
