Hi seer,



There are three attractions which seem to have become permenant on Wanfujing.

1. A dancing water display fountains modulated in time to music (the inevitable Blue Danube.

2. A heart sinking catapult capsule further up the street. This is a small capsule which seats 3 and is suspended between 2 cranes the 2 bands attached to the unit are tensioned then released launching occupant and capsule 40--50 feet into the air.

3. Bronze figures rickshaw, stereo typical chinese figures and trade symbols

There used to be the largest Mac Donalds in the world on the corner of WFG and Chang An Ave but this was knocked down.

I first visited Beijing in 1986 and have been going back regularly since I love the place. Many change some good some bad. I have some earlier photo's
