the mixture between old and new drew my attention. deducing from publications, reports of friends, as well as own short time experience in one chinese city, development in china happens at blazing speed – that is, in the cities. a lot of young, western style well dressed people in remnants of old architecture and traditional colors that get surrounded by steel/glass/concrete skyscrapers. should i ever have the opportunity to come back to china, i would love to see the countryside as i guess the life in the villages is extremely different from the cities, in way that we don’t see any more here in europe.
It is pretty amazing how quickly things change.
