China - Beijing Miscellany

Friday, 19 April through Sunday, 21 April 2019

Interesting sights around Beijing.

A well-disguised cell phone tower in the Forbidden City.
These spherical bushes are not clipped -- they are really metal racks that potted flowers are placed into. We saw this type of floral display in many other places.
In addition to stop lights and pedestrian lights, China has stoplights for bicycles.
Mobile police stations were relatively common.
While Beijing rarely gets snow, the winters are cold and damp. Many people outfitted their motorcycles with these quilts that shielded their legs and sleeves with mittens to help keep hands warm.
