My Love and Hate Affairs in China - Day 3

After Suzhou, we went to Nanjing.. Basically there is nothing amazing to see in Nanjing! This is the second place i took the least photo in. I will tell you guys in my next post which is the other place i took the least pictures.

We arrived at Nanjing at around 5pm. Went straight to the place where Sun Yat-Sen (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Yat-sen) was buried. It was raining and it was bloody COLD...

It was quite challenging for me as i seldom exercise :p
Finally when we reach the top...

it was already DARK...not much view also ..argh!

after dinner, we went to this shopping street in Nanjing called Fu Zi Jie. There is a lot of snack to try there but as we were already full from dinner, we didn't try any of it. The shopping was so-so only.

Heard from our tour guide that there are a lot of prostitute services around this street. Actually i thought its the whole of China ? haha..

The next morning, we were brought to see the Nanjing Bridge. Again, it is just a bridge, nothing much..

Next to the bridge, there is a crystal ball painting art museum! I am telling you, there are museum, souvenir shops everywhere so that the tourists can't escape!

this shifu is quite amazing actually..

Its not that we don't know how to appreciate arts. We Do! I think his paintings are really unique but we were just so sick of those greedy sales girls! We even saw one of the sales girls forcing one of the tourists to buy one of the crystal ball! What fun is there when ppl force you to shop?
