China is one of the country that I like to visit. Though for sure every place is over crowded but their old structures are worth to see. Happy weekend!

I hope your tour of the Forbidden City was great despite the great number of people there. Sometimes crowd can dampen the spirit.

There are a lot of people in that photo, but I'm wondering if, for China, that isn't just a few? I had imagined that the popular places and cities in China would be even more crowded than that!

No need to go so far away, here in Singapore I already feel the squeeze. Everywhere is jam-packed with people, especially the weekends!

@dragonfly && manangkim It is indeed a beauty! And I'm learning so much about China's history...

@LilyHydrangea They have been restoring some parts of it.. I agree the rusty old feel of the wall makes it look more authentic!

@RogerOwenGreen There is absolutely no time for one to wait! :O It's one long walk! ...Kind of like walking along with the crowd.. until you reach the open areas.

@SymphoneofLove it is definitely hard to take a decent photo with so many people around.

@Rebecca && TumbleWords thank you.:D

@Jay I guess I shall have to post another photo of it from another angle! :) This photo was taken from the sides.

@Jama that is very true! Warm weather+lots of people=suffocating~~
