HOW TO GO ON....

There are ways and ways to move from a place to another in Beijing.
Let me introduce you some of them.
















Downtown Beijing you might find it really caotic. Taxidrivers without driving licenses, bus drivers, 2-wheel drivers (motorbikes, millions of bycicles and other sorts of bikes).
Now here you can see how it is in rea life...try to come over the street now...it works fine fine. Nobody is showing you the fingers "as we fine european people would do". Everybody is calm and it works.















Another way is that you have a little bit of money and you get onto a rickshaw. Believe it or not I did not try. We found it too touristic and my partner said that it was using people to serve your dreams in a poor way. So, we watched them instead.

Central station / bus station. Hundreds of persons are there waiting for their connection to somewhere in the rest of the country. They sit, calm, sleeping, reading, smoking, chatting, playing, eating on the floor. And they wait patiently.
