CHINA: TRAVEL PICTURES

Shenzhen, China:
Splendid China Theme Park

Shenzhen, 26 May 1997.
Our first day in the People's Republic of China.

The Great Wall on the background is a miniaturized replica of the real thing.

'Splendid China' is a clone of Taiwan's 'Window on China'. It
allows one to 'visit all of China in one day'. Beijing's
Forbidden City, the Great Wall, Tibet's Potala Palace, the
Shaolin Temple, the gardens of Suzhow, the rock formations of
Guilin, the Tianshan Mountains of Xinjiang, the Stone Forest in
Yunnan, Huangguoshu Falls, ... Even some sights of the rebel
Province of Taiwan! They are all there. The catch? Everything is
reduced to one fifteenth of its real size.
