The weather was nice enough that I couldn't resist but get out and enjoy it for a few hours. I think I found my favorite place to walk here, yet it seems to be the heart of tourist attractions as well. It is still a place away from the rush of people walking, biking or driving, so it's nice.
A photo of Huilongtan Pool Park, the park that Vincent and I found on our last adventure. Because its mid day, on a weekday there wasn't many people either on the path nor in the water which was nice.
A monument as you enter one of the paths to the park. My best assumption is that it is a Confucious monument, with my lack of ability to read pinyin... its my best guess.
One of the path ways around Huilongtan pool, some locals enjoying a walk in the background.
These are some photos of "fu dogs" or Chinese guardian lions. I bit a little bit of research about them because a friend back home asked me to find one to bring back, so I was interested. Plus they are in front of many buildings here... anyways, my research:Have a great weekend!
I did some research for Confucius. The dates shown on the monument are the years of Confucius birth and death. Nice pictures. I like the architecture.
