Touristy stuff

I've spent the last couple of days in Beijing on the tourist trail.

Yesterday I went for an explore of old Beijing by foot. It was really nice to wonder down the hutong alleys and get a taste of the real place.

Today I went to the summer palace and gardens. Based around a huge lake, these parklands and temples were probably the nicest I've seen in Beijing. Here a few pics:













On another note Mike and Pete have headed off to Shanghai. With me going on to Xi'an its the end of our two week adventures. It's been a blast, all the best guys!!! Watch out for them pesky taxi drivers....
