    Fascinating tour, Keith. I will never make it to China- and I do thank you so much for taking me along today.

    Colorful indeed. Love them all, but my favorite shot is the two little ones on the steps. Made me smile.

    Thank you for hosting the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.

    Have a fabulous day and rest of the week, Keith. 🙂

    Love the Panda!! Temple of Heaven too. So beautiful. I had the best time in China – so fun and such great people!

      I too found the people delightful, always smiling, always willing to help – like the time a friend and I got totally lost in Beijing and someone took us all the way back to our hotel!

    Wow, Keith! Every photo is stunning–you really captured the colors, energy, and charm of China. I especially love the shots of the kids – their joy is contagious. Thank you for taking us along on this beautiful journey!

    Mom was in Beijing a lot in the early 90’s before digital cameras. She would do 5 day trips with a three day layover there. It was fun, she saw a lot of things including the Great Wall but she never did go to the zoo to see pandas. She spent a lot of time in Asia when she was flying as the layovers were long and she only had to work ten or eleven days a month since the flight hours added up fast. Great photos of the life and culture.

      I bet she has lots of stories to tell. I can’t get enough of Asia!

    Love the photos Keith so bright and full of joy. The panda is adorable, a great moment captured. Thanks for a splash of color today in the middle of winter. Cheers.

      I’m so pleased you liked them, Suzette. The panda was happily feasting on bamboo!

    Some beautiful and colorful scenes!
    Takes me back to my visits to China (quite a while ago now).

    An awesome collection of images. I’m sure you have even more memories of the visit.

      I could have gone on and on, but I has to draw the line somewhere!
