People Watching
People watching in China is one of our favorite hobbies. There's for sure lots to see with the endless amounts of people and the vast cultural and lifestyle differences that can be found here. In this post we have decided to share some of the people that we have seen around town in their many different situations.
Especially during spring, summer, and fall you can find people (usually elderly) outside playing games around tables or any available surface. In the pictures below, you can see some serious ma zhong happening.
If you go to the Beilin area in Xi'an, you will see calligraphers patiently making their brush strokes on rice paper. Yellow is always very captivated by this.
We also stumble across wedding photo shoots from time to time. The first bride is wearing a modern red wedding dress, while the second couple is decked out in some traditional red clothing.
It's a very common site to see hair cutting stations like this just about anywhere in the city. No need to open your own shop. Just pull up a stool!
This last picture is from a cat expo that Yellow found at a shopping mall close to our place. These are the first prize kitties and their audience.
