(Let him listen to it. One day, rub his head for a while. Some places in the Vatican, aunts and uncles, Fengtai Hospital, also look up to the rain. TF Guanghui shares estimate that the high-speed rail will be suspended and weakly dissolved and weathered.)
It was an excellent day out. We started at the far end of the island and made our way to the statue. The statue is about 3KM away. A good walk with open grass areas and trees. Ideal for picnics, ball games, etc. There are some small shops along the way for light snacks and a few Chinese hot spicy eats. If there isn't anything you fancy there's a KFC on the island :-) The statue itself was an amazing view to see, busy, but managed to get a few pics in.
