Beijing Week 1 - 潘家园 and 长安大戏院




潘家园 ... road sign.











This whole place is a art shopping heaven. From small printed pictures to paintings as big as 10' x 6'.. or maybe even bigger.








Some painting displayed.








Proceed to 长安大戏院, tickets are sold from range of RMB60, RMB80, RMB100 and RMB180. So I thought RMB100 should be good enough and got it. Got a little dissapointed when the RMB100 seats are just few rows in front of RMB80 seats while RMB180 comes with titbits and table.





To get a better picture (from people blocking the way), I moved to those RMB80 seats for the rest of the show.








A good 120 minutes watching this, calls for a second thought for my next visit. I should have visited the 中国北京杂技团 in 宣武区 as recommended by someone. Anyway, walked away bored but with over 100 pictures and video.
