It is not the day one that I expected. It was too off track to what I have planned
due our misadventures.
DIAOYUTAI GINGKO AVENUE
Just outside Diaoyutai State Guesthouse,
it is more popular to visit during first two weeks of November, because the
leaves have already fallen when we arived.
Location: Fucheng Road Side, Haidian,
Beijing, China
Subway: Line 09, Baiduizi Station, Exit
C
It is around 3pm when we reached
Tiananmen Square East Gate, but entered the wrong door, we are supposed to be
guided by someone speaking in English find our way but she instead invited us
in her small gallery nearby, showing us her paintings of 4 seasons, and even
tried to sell us a smaller version of it.
(Almost same type of paintings are also available in Great Wall
Muntianyu section grounds.)
TIANANMEN
Subway: Line 1, Tiananmen East Station,
Exit A.
Tiananmen Tower (Gate of Heavenly Peace)
It’s a very stressful long walk with multitude of local and foreign tourists. We just get so tired and lost interest on what's inside. After a couple of sitting, photo op and coffee break, we headed to National Flag grounds and The Monument to the People’s Heroes.
We are to watch the flag retreat, but
people gets thicker as the ceremony is nearly to start. Until there is a incident that happened,
there is a family of 3 who started shouting. The guards went immediately and pulled them to
the police mobile. There we decided to
leave the place because that might lead to something else. Choose to stay safe as always.
