Last of Beijing: Qianmen

While in Beijing for training, I had the chance to meet an American friend who was in China for her honeymoon.  Crazy!  We went to Qianmen (the former front gate of the old city wall) and walked north to enjoy more historic Beijing sights.

Congrats to Amanda and Matt!

Tourist street

Mao's mausoleum.  We tried to go but it closed at noon.

View of the Forbidden City from the park to the north.  So much better than fighting the crowds in the city itself!
