Striking the Vital Points on a Panda!

Do you like it?

Found this interesting panda T-shirt in Beijing; it's so funny! 

 

All the lines point to vital points on the body.

Striking the vital points is a type of Kung Fu that is very popular nowadays. Many clinics even use it as a way to treat disease.

 

This shop has other panda patterns that are very hot in Beijing, I think I’ll take my friend there tomorrow.

Kite Romance

Kites, kites, kites!

What really refreshes my mind at work is when a bird or a kite flies by the window.

This strong feeling I have for kites is inexplicable, given I can't even fly one!

So I decided to learn. "Many kites sold on the market can't fly," the shop owner said, "but ours are guaranteed to fly easily."

I haven't had the time to go out and try yet, but I just can't get tired of looking at its fine and delicate features.

Bring the Routemaster Back to Life!

Old school

I wasn't at all interested in model cars until I found a shop in Beijing's 798 Art District.
There are so many models here, I found motorcycles, old Model-T's, even planes and trains. My favorite one was a red double-decker bus.

 

It is the classic symbol of England. The "Routemaster" saw continuous service for nearly 50 years, and currently remains on two heritage routes in central London.

36 Plates Depicting 36 Steps


Quite the collection

Each one of these porcelain plates features a pattern depicting one step in crafting famous Jingdezhen porcelain ware.

I especially like the snow-white background and the deep blue color to make each scene. 36 in all!

I couldn't help but gasp in admiration at how ingenious the ancient Chinese were!
