The pics

My hotel, the Exhibition Center Hotel. Very cheap but nice.

The Exhibition Center.

Pics i took during my first hour in Beijing.

A pic i took near the CCTV Tower. I was 4 times on the top. The view i had during my first day was not very good, so i will post no pic.
BTW: I read everywhere that the tower is 387m (emporis,...) but the women in the tower said that the tower is 405m tall. Who is right?
