On December 2011, I spent my Christmas visiting the capital city of China, Beijing. Originally, I have visited China many years ago when I was still in junior high together with my family. However, for this trip I went there together with my friends Adam and Saravana. We had just completed our internship in Mission Hills Haikou, Hainan and decided to take a long one week vacation to explore the culture and heritage of Beijing.
During our trip here, we had our own personal tour guide and a private van that took us to various places around Beijing for example The Forbidden City, Great Wall, Temple of Heaven, Summer Palace and etc. Although, my friends find history boring but to myself it is like a bedtime story that helps me sleep at night.
The hotel that we stayed in was in the heart of the Beijing City. It was close to the shopping district and many fantastic places to eat. Unfortunately, one of my friends was Muslim so we mainly had to dine in Halal approved restaurant. Nonetheless, the food served was good and we really enjoyed a warm meal after several hours of walking in the cold.
The pictures above were taken with my Digital Camera Nikon because my DSLR was undergoing a major service back home in Malaysia because of water damage a few weeks ago. Thankfully, I had a spare camera that was able to take excellent photos like this as well.
Well, I've managed to visit several provinces in China at least. I would return soon to other provinces for my photography work if I ever had the chance again.
