2007 China Trip Impression (As a member of the American Folklore Society Delegation to China in December 2007)
|
In the beginning, ... chaotic ... food, sex, drug, traffic ... (Guangzhou) |
|
But there are places like this, ... Suhe Town in Yunan. |
|
And places like this, ... a Daoist Temple in Wenzhou. |
|
Or a courtyard like this, ... in Wenzhou. |
|
Between the tree-topped tower (right side) from the Tang Dynasty and the Pagoda (left side) from the Song Dynasty arise the buildings behind a temple ... all in the River-Center-Island (Wenzhou) |
|
And the other bank of the river... (Wenzhou) |
|
Underneath these tombs is the civilization alive four to five millennia ago ... (Wuhan) |
|
But this is the world still alive ... (Guangzhou) |
|
And the life common people enjoy ... (Jinan, Shandong) |
|
And the maze tourists love ... (Lijiang, Yunnan) |
|
For this is simple an old town ... (Lijiang, Yunan) |
|
Now the history stands in dark and around ... (Zhongshan University, Guangzhou) |
|
Finally, the birds from Siberia also join the wave of tourism ... (Dianchi, Yunan) |
