2013 October, Long Trip - China, The Duck

2013 October, Long Trip - China, Beijing Summer Palace

I took the underground number 4 to Belgongmen (The Summer Palace). Underground ticket 2 RMB. The entrance is near the underground station exit. Unfortunately, they didn't accept foreign student cards (entrance fee 30 RMB). You can buy  a combo ticket or one to the Palace which I bought  as I am not a big fan of all museums. There is a lot to see and you can spend all day in the park (palace). From the highest point I saw a yellow patch on the lake. I thought that it would  be nice to see a famous Dutch duck here which was created by one artist and host by Beijing for the Beijing Design Festival. There were selling small ones everywhere.
This Duck has already visited 12 countries and it was in Beijing for 2 more days.

From the Summer Palace I went to Qianmen, to see my Chinese friends and to eat duck. It was a famous renovated hutong with well know shops in Europe.

We stayed there till 23 and I took almost the last underground to my hostel.
