一个人的北京。Beijing, alone.

Beijing through the lens of my iPhone 7 Plus.

北京炸酱面 and some side dishes, which I didn't really fancy.

The cheaper option compared to 大董. We heard it is popular among the locals too.

Peking duck was good! About 45 SGD per duck.

宫保鸡丁 was surprisingly well-executed.

Outside 前门

Skewers (mostly lamb and beef), another commonly seen street food.

蟹黄汤包 (crab roe dumplings), which I thought was mediocre. Very juicy but couldn't detect the taste of crab roe.

The maze at 南锣鼓巷。

Full of people.

Touring Forbidden City in the crazy weather.

This gives you a clue of where I was headed next.

That's right, 荷花市场！

Breathtaking sight. Could have been better if not for the pollution.

On the whole, I didn't enjoy the city as much as I thought I would. Doubt I'll be back anytime soon.
