Shanghai, 2010.11.16
I get to Shanghai the right moment – there is the modern art biennial going on, entitled “Rehearsal”. The core of the whole event is the exhibition in Modern Art Museum, located next to the People’s Square. Some of the artists took the title too literally, simply completing their artwork with the documentation of the […]
Da Qing, 2010.10.19
October 19, 2010
This time my visit in China was more personal than touristy, thus I will limit myself to describing the interesting para-professional experience in Da Qing and art-oriented sightseeing in Shanghai. During yet another stay in chilly north (the temperature will soon reach -20 degrees during the day) I had the opportunity to make myself useful: […]
Lijiang, 2010.10.08
October 8, 2010
Night train (two-storey, comfortable sleeper) brings us to Lijiang – probably the most touristically desired town in China (for Chinese). Crowds flow through picturesque, beautifully renovated streets of the old town (there is the national holiday going on, extended by an extra weekend), not at all discouraged by the stubborn rain. The town is very […]
Kunming, 2010.10.07
October 7, 2010
Kunming Kunming welcomes us with a wall of rain and a grey sky. The city itself doesn’t look any special to me… The value of the capital of Yunnan are its parks – right now, for weather reasons, they don’t feel that great either. In spite of all, we decide to visit one of them […]
Changsha, 2010.10.06
October 6, 2010
Fei is flying away, me too. But I’m going in a different direction. Encouraged by Fei’s lovely cousin who also offers to accompany me, I head for the beautiful Yunnan province. On the way we have 10-hour stopover in Changsha where we do a little bit of sightseeing. We focus mostly on the park located […]
Zhenjiang, 2010.09.16
September 16, 2010
In Nanjing I change trains to get to Zhenjiang. I take the super-modern, fast train that takes 15 minutes to run 90 km. I look at the screen displaying current speed – we sometimes reach 308km/h! In Zhenjiang station I have to confirm if I reached my destination – last time I was here was […]
Shenzhen, 2010.09.15
September 15, 2010
Shenzhen Early in the morning Bostoe accompanies me to the subway and I head directly to Chinese border (formally HK is a part of China, but on both sides you need visas; HK citizens do not consider themselves mainland Chinese at all). I arrive in Shenzhen, greeting me with the familiar chaos and complete incapacity […]
Hongkong, 2010.09.12
September 12, 2010
After a couple of hours’ flight in a nice company – a Lankan girl whose name I forgot but I remember the meaning (“spontaneous”), a stopover in Kuala Lumpur and a couple more hours of flying (Malaysian Airlines treat me with a nice set of kung-fu movies) I reach Hongkong. My stay is short – […]
Colombo, 2010.09.11
September 11, 2010
My last day in Sri Lanka… Colombo again. I visit the Hindu temple called Murugan, where everybody wants me to pay for everything. Then I just walk the streets getting stuffed with rice&curry, trying to keep away from all hucksters. The good method is a smile and a couple of friendly words – not only […]
Kandy, 2010.09.10
September 10, 2010
This time I only use Kandy for a stopover. I say my goodbyes to the kind hosts and – first of all – to Magdalena. This is where are travelling routes split… See you later, somewhere on the way! *** Tym razem Kandy to tylko nocleg i pożegnanie z naszymi życzliwymi gospodarzami, a […]
