Happy Chinese New Year!
Back in 2007 I was fortunate enough to spend Chinese New Year in Beijing!
This was the entrance to the Marco Polo Bridge
Here we are on the Lugou Bridge aka Marco Polo Bridge in English.
There were hundreds of stone lions on the bridge and they were all different.

Decorations for New Years

Incense
Very old buildings, around 1700 years.
These trees were planted almost 1000 years ago!
It was a great day!
