A day trip out of town seemed to be in order after reading
papers for days! Sixty-eight minutes on
the Metro puts us in Foshan to see the sights and take in the culture just
outside of Guangzhou. Zumiao Temple, Shunde Qinghui Park,
NanFeng Ancient Kiln and Qiandeng Lake kept us busy. Most of the Chinese porcelain is made in
Foshan and it is an exquisite rival to Lladro. Very fine detail but the colors
are all vibrant unlike Llardo.
The Dragon
Dance at the Zumiao Temple is exercise for a week, all performed by young
Chinese men. The drums, the costumes and
the audience were all part of the morning entertainment.
A boat ride on the Qiandeng Lake at the end of the day was the perfect
ending to a change of pace for us.
Wisdom from Confucius!
