Shi San Ling


Holidays are big here in Beijing. They have a five-day holiday for the Labor day alone (April 30 - May 6). I still have to work but I don't have school for the week, so I dragged the lot to Chang Ping District to see the Ming Tombs.




The first (and in my opinion the best) attraction is the Sacred Way where they have lots of stone animals and statues guarding the path. The Great Red Gate is the beginning of quite a long walk.

We have to stop at almost everyone of them to take pictures. And since Mel, Reg and me brought our cameras... the Sacred Way walk took a rather long time.
