BEST OF BEIJING - 3

BEST MEMORIES FROM TIAN’ANMEN SQUARE

Bulol by the Tian'anmen Gate aka The Gate of Heavenly Peace. It separates the Square from the Forbidden City.

Bulol in front of the Mao Mausoleum

Together at the historical and world's largest city square. Behind us is the Monument to the People's Heroes.


While we were here, I said a prayer for the Filipino tourists, the Madrigal family, who were killed in Tian'anmen by a Chinese farmer in August of 2005. I'm not sure China ever apologized for that tragic event.
