Today we visited Tienanmen Square, the Forbidden City and the Summer Palace. It was a beautiful sunny day. Above are pictures of Chairman Mao's mausoleum, me inside the Forbidden City, the Emperor's throne, and Guan Yin from the Summer Palace that was built by the Empress Cixi, who took a job at the Forbidden City as a maid and walked out the Empress of China. Chinese people don't like her very much but it's hard not to admire her, and her Summer home. The first car ever imported into China is still there.
