We headed to 'The Forbidden City' and the 'Jing Shan Gardens' today. The forbidden city is a real taste of Chinese architecture and culture. We headed through the gardens towards the lake, where we saw an interesting "crazy sword lady" who got angry when she was photographed...luckily the sword was plastic.
The rivers are frozen solid in Beijing and there was people skating and sledging on the lake. We had a coffee along the river front (in the warmth) and headed back to our side of town, this side was completely aimed at tourists.
What better thing to have in Beijing then a Peking Duck...an entire one for that matter! Myself and Tina ordered an entire Duck and ate most of it (Everything except the beak and feet!) ...4 Large Beers and a Peking Duck for under 20 Euro...you can't beat that!
