China 2010
Xiao Pangu Garden in Yangzhou
This is my second trip (since settling down in the USA) back home.
It differs drastically from my first. The 2003 trip I herded my kids and tried to flaunt my hometown (they were so thoroughly turned off that till this day they adamantly refuse to visit it again). If that trip was showoff, stressful and full of struggle then this 2010 one is intimate, intoxicating and full of insightful involvements.
Wanzhu Yuan in Ji’nan
China, needless to say, has changed for the better. Really. IF you’re still thinking or talking about human rights and sweatshops, then you need to wise up and do some serious catch up.
My itinerary
- Shanghai,
- ZhenJiang,
- Yangzhou,
- JiNan: Wanzhu Yuan
- NingBo,
- Taipei,
- Hong Kong: concert
