hutong courtyard

the cold grey weather we had, just above freezing, perfectly matches the blue-grey colors here, with the chillies a perfect complementary in color as well as characteristic.
the chinese society undergoes a fast transition. this is strongly visible also inside the cities, where those who do not manage to be on the rising side live under very simple conditions. i did not want to think about winter temperatures in accomodations like this.
I really like both images and the purple and red outfit on the hanger is wonderful….
These are wonderful shots. I love the chilies hanging on the string. Very interesting.
Certainly glimpse to another world – and makes one think about all those luxuries that we take for granted. Thanks again for sharing your impressions from your tours through beijing!
