Wangfujing , Beijing

Wangfujing is as famous a trademark of Beijing as the Great Wall to tourists . It is actually just a shopping street consists of old and new shops .

  It is a modern street now . There is even a KFC outlet here , which provides the ideal toilet to tourists like us. The street is full of people , both locals & international tourists, even on a Friday afternoon .

These are the two pairs of chopsticks I got from the specialty shop . 

What's so special about these chopsticks ? It has our surnames endorsed on it !

There are two popular side streets in Wangfujing. One sells old Beijing specialty , another sells all kind of food in Beijing, including skewered deep-fried baby scorpions .
