  • Four Shades of Green

  • 龙庆峡

    It’s been 16 years since all my cousins are in one city. The family took a trip out side to Long Qing Valley, an well known area for Beijingers to escape the heat. It was a fun trip.

  • 萬火 Vinvie

    This place is a great hangout place. It’s clean, small and cosy. Not to mention the food is fantastic as well.

  • Westin Chao Yang

    This place always makes me forget bad things about Beijing.

  • CD Meeting.

    Portfolio night Beijing. Nice to see the old office and ex-collegues / various bosses again.

  • King’s Joy

    Discovered this restaurant a few days back. A nice court yard next to the Yonghe lama temple.
