Dave's 2007 China Trip Bejing (Part 3 - Great Hall)

Touring The Great Hall of the People in Tiananmen Square. It is used as Chinese parliament building and has 2,979 representatives. Thankfully it was not in session so we were able to tour the entire building. The artwork inside is incredible and we went to some of the same rooms Richard Nixon did when he established diplomatic relations here in 1972.

Yes incredible big building it is. Have you seen the concert for the victims of the Sinchuan Eartquake last 3rd of August? I just saw it last week in youtube. Amazing right? China is changing so to speak.

No I haven't, I haven't seen it or been back there since the earthquake, but I definitely plan on going back soon.

you are so lucky to get the chance to go inside the hall, which i didn't get many time trips. Just amazing!
