Starting with a beautiful timelapse ... Followed by a look around the city, including Green Lake.

With rugged peaks soaring to over 1,800 meters, ancient pines and a myriad of breath-taking walkways, it is easy to see why HuangShan is perhaps the best known mountain area in China and famous in Chinese art and poetry. Filmed in July 2011, AnHui province.

An unusual video for the new year (it is not about China), but it relates to our by-line - 'live more'. The past can provide wisdom, the future goals to strive for, but don't lose focus on the here and now - it is the true reality so don't miss it. Wishing all the best in life to all our visitors. Do your best to make it happen, whatever your dreams, yet love and live each moment (it might not be one's ideal circumstance, but we can still make the most of it) .

Visiting a few sections of the Great Wall of China near BeiJing, including 'Wild Wall' ...

The XinJiang region, (north) west China, has been under Chinese rule since at least the 18th Century. While bombing Muslims everywhere else, the Uyghurs in China (a Turkic people in XinJiang) are a useful tool for Western attempts to destabilize and break up China. Just like the useful idiots in Hong Kong, and Tibet.

The first time I went to JuYong Pass was a coach trip and we had only an hour at this stop on the tour. Yet I was determined to get to the top and return to the coach on time. Result - absolute exhaustion, but I did manage to get some photos along the way :) In this video, a lot of the early part of the climb is skipped, but I still think you will get the picture.
