Spring in country

My hometown Taishan is a county in Guangdong Province, not far away from Guangzhou, about 160km.

Going to respect my grandfather's tomb is an anual activity of my family. And, as most of other people, we have some relatives in the village.

this is the village where my grandpa was born in

Chicken could live freely here, as the villagers don't care about avian flu

Another side of Hong Kong

2006-03-22T06:48:24Z

I've been to HK for a few times, as it is not far from Guangzhou, the city I live in.

In my impression, HK is a very noisy city, buidings are high and narrow, streets without trees. Anyway, it is a shopper paradise, so I still love to go there a few times a year.

During the lunar year of China, I went there for shopping, and this time the city gave me another impression.

As usual, I went directly to the shopping mall Festival Walk, which is by the Kowloon Tong train station(I'm not sure of the spelling). It happened that I went through the wrong exit. And I found that the district of Kowloon Tong was very very quiet. From the street, I could see flowers and plants in the yards. There are international schools and kindergartens on both sides of the road (I forgot its name), so I think there live some rich people.

For people who want to relax a while in busy Hong Kong, I think it is a right place to go.

It's great to have a blog in English, although I've set up some in Chinese, haha~~

Yesterday I book the tickets to Singapore, I hope it will be a great trip with Terry.

Now I am searching for the information of accomodation in Singapore in this website. I am sure I could be a good backpacker, and hope for more journeys in the coming days.

I'm going to post the journeys in the past in this web
