The Gate of Heavenly Peace
Tienanmen Square as we head up to the flag pole
Crowd of people waiting for the flag raising ceremony
The Egg with the sun rising - a strange site to our smog besotted eyes!Here's some early morning images from Beijing on Wednesday the 25th. Ben and I headed over to Tienanmen Square to see the Chinese army color guard raise the Chinese flag. After that we ran over to the National Performance Center (The Egg). Then back on he subway to ready for our transfer to the airport and ultimately a flight to Shanghai. A rare day in Beijing - the sun was out and no smog/fog to speak of. Later on the fog settled in and delayed our flight ny about an hour. Nice to see the sun - it's hard to describe how bad the air is in Beijing. Simply, it's bad.....
