All cities have postcard shops but we have never seen one quite as elaborate as this…
But we have seen so many wonderful sights in Beijing that we thought we would create our own set of postcards just for you...
The New Beijing
Old Beijing – a hutong in the rain
Preparing for the 18th National Congress in Tiananmen Square
Flowers for the President at The Gate of Heavenly Peace, Forbidden City
Coal for winter fires, Beijing
The Birds Nest Olympic Stadium, Beijing
Chinese lanterns in the hutong
New Friends in Beijing
Now we are en-route to Xi’an to see the terracotta warriors so we thought it was time for a quick quiz about Beijing – with real prizes.
So - what on earth do you think these Chinese warning signs mean?
Give us the correct (or funniest) answers and we will mail a real postcard from China to anyone you nominate. Just imagine the fun you will have when a friend or relative receives a postcard apparently from you in China.
Disclaimer - This competition is absolutely free to enter, (Wow!), and you will not receive solicitations to purchase any products or services – Honestly! Just give us your answers in the comment section below for a chance to win one of these valuable postcards.
We will choose 6 winners and email for details of the recipients, together with personal greetings, and will pop the postcards in the mail ASAP.
Good luck.
I think the one in the top left hand corner is the best..it is telling people not to cut off their arms or undress when they are in that street.
book club coming up on Wednesday..we will miss you Sheila.. jean
