Thanks Paul. 🙏 I can only imagine the sweeping changes you've witnessed in your time there - even in my few years in Guangzhou the pace of change was dizzying. Looking forward to reading your own piece on the Palace Museum.
Yes - a fellow 广东人！ 😄 These first few newsletters will cover my week's 'orientation' in Beijing, but from then it'll be down in Guangzhou Baiyun. I passed through Shenzhen a few times, but now learn a lot about it from the YouTube channel 'Fel Thommy'.
Roger Moore as a guide to the Forbidden City. Brilliant. A great read Nico. I would love to travel more in China.
Thank you 🙏 There is just so much of it to see!
Thank you for this. You make me want to go there, despite how much tourism has changed it already—a bit of a paradox.
Thanks for reading!
Enjoyed that, special that you have pictures of that time. The Palace Museum has really changed.

Oh, you were in Guangzhou? I've always been based in Dongguan/Shenzhen.

I see! Looking forward to it.
Thank you so much! It's definitely misunderstood, even by those of us who have spent significant amounts of time there!
