This beautiful Ming dynasty complex (GuGong, 'Old Palace'), which opened in 1420, lies in the heart of Beijing ... Bonus films - mostly Beijing, plus a little ShangHai ...

Rough-cut version - a polished version will appear here some day ... Bonus films - 'One day in BeiJing', 'a 17 hours cycle ride around DongCheng, central BeiJing' and BeiJing's unicycle acrobatic stars on French TV; wow - awesome ... Love - is the only way ...
