Yonghe Temple, Temple of Confucius & Wangfujing

·218 words·2 mins

Very spiritual sightseeing today: at first we visited a buddhist temple, then we explored the Temple of Confucius. After that, delicious food.

Today the weather was much clearer, the smog got carried away by the wind. But it will return soon. A positive aspect of this is, that my pictures came out very good.

Not much to say thou, just look at the photo descriptions.
