Jade Shop / Great Wall of China

Part of our trip to beijing is the tour the Jade Shop which I think is government owned. Anyways, I was so excited for this part of our trip since I'm so fascinated with Jade. Never mind gold, silver, or even diamond, but much prefer Jade. Jade is a natural rock made with minerals and formed trough time and natural earth formation. Jade is usually color green and it's color gets lighter over time when you wear it without removing it in your body. To tell you the truth, Jade items is much expensive in China than Thailand because chinese people value jade as it gives numerous benefits and also trough the usage of their ancestors.

Temple of Heaven, Beijing, China

A person coming from a tropical country that are only familiar with tropical trees like coconut and palm trees will definitely bee happy and amazed by northern country trees that are vibrantly good in colors.



I love that Beijing streets are full of nice trees and flowers.
