Skating on a chair: a cold afternoon in Beijing
On this cold Saturday afternoon I decided to go for a walk in the historical Gulou (Drum Tower) and Houhai (Rear sea/lake) area of Beijing and take some pictures of daily life.
Before going to the frozen Houhai lake, I decided to make a stop at the Drum and Bell towers, used to keep the official time of the empire from 1272 all the way to 1924. I had been there several times before, but I just don't get tired of this site. In the future I will dedicate a post just to these two great sites.
