Fragrant Hills Park (Xiangshan Park)
Hiking in China is a little different than in the US, instead of trails that zig zag up the mountain they have built stairs that go all the way to the top. I am not sure if the pictures will convey exactly how steep these steps are.
We made a special trip to the Beijing National Theatre to take some sunset photos. The sunset was a little disappointing but I did take some photos to try out with HDR, I haven’t bought a copy yet which means I get the watermark

I am not quiet sure what the point of this giant jumbo screen is other than to make you go woah. The shopping area is called the “The Place”

One thing I wasn’t really expecting in Beijing was the amount of neon signs and the number of TV’s, you see all round the city they have them on the streets and in the buses and trams, and in the metro stations.
So what does a beer drinker do on his birthday in Beijing China. He drinks beer, and good beer at that. We were are the Kro’s Nest next to workers stadium. The beer was good but the pizza was average at best, soggy crust, lack of toppings other than cheese and tomato sauce.
From Left to right, Brooklyn Pale Ale, Brooklyn Brown, Rogue Brutal Bitter, Brooklyn Lager, Rogue Dead Guy Ale.
Each bottle has its own label translated on the back. We tried to save them but they were too well glued.
