I recently made a trip to Beijing, and am in the process of going through the photos and posting them to my website. In the meantime, here is a sneak preview of what is to come in my Beijing 2007 series.

1. Welcome to Beijing. There are a lot of new buildings set along wide boulevards. I will show photos from my walking tour around the World Trade Ctr.
