This is a view of Tiananmen Square, also known as (Gate of Heavenly Peace). |
The Ming Dynasty Emperior is said to hung himself on this tree in the foreground. This must be a slow growing tree because if the story is true, the tree is at lease 400 yrs old |

Here I am on the Great Wall of China, next to my beautiful wife |
For some reason I wasn't impressed. I thought the wall would be larger, It wasn't that great to me. |
