This afternoon was spent at the Temple of Heaven. We'd quite a walk through the grounds to get to the actual temple but it was well worth it. Local people were relaxing all around, playing cards, draughts and chinese checkers. There were folk playing music on traditional instruments, and groups singing, there were some folk sitting knitting and chatting, and some doing their exercises.
We leave Beijing tonight on the overnight train to Xian.
Next stop - the Terracotta Warriors!
