New BEIJING, New CHINA 見證新中國



Casual selection of photos taken during a technical visit to Beijing in August 2007
to see the latest architecture and development in pursuit of Olympics 2008.

The capital has changed a lot since my first visit in mid 80s...
and even my previous visit 2 years ago, both in terms of hardware and software.

The new Beijing remind me of many beautiful old memories....

Outstanding job !!!! I like your photos.

I've been 6 times in mainland China..
And still, I'm not able to understand what does communist means.
But then... what about the DPRK "Democratic People's Republic of Korea"
These days names are just names... They don't reflect what they represent.

Keep up the good work !!!
