Chinatown

So here are some pictures of Chinatown. The way I walked to the
Olympic village I went through Chinatown. Yes indeed I said Chinatown
in China. It is an odd concept I know. I wondered if there should be a
American town. From what I was told there is a big expat area in
Beijing that pretty much is America town. Although there are
foreigners from all over who live and hang out in what is called
Wadaoko.

The first picture is of the gate in front of China town. The next is
of the gate of Chinatown with the McDonald's restaurant featured. I
think that the juxtaposition of the old classical Chinese gate next to
the McDonald's restaurant is a real interesting combination.

Then there is a picture of the Chinatown sign.

The last picture is of a sort of totem pole like thing that is
Chinatown and you can see the crows nest in the background.
