Baba's thought for today.
"There should not be any trace of dislike
or distrust on the score of nationality,
language,caste,economic status, scholarship,
age or sex."
Started the day with a visit to Rendinghu Park located at 11, Liupukangjie, Dewaiande Lu, Xicheng District.It is one of the smaller parks with a taste of Trivoli. On entering the gate, there is a yellow stucco building with a baby perched on top.Then on both sides are a few naked statues of men and women. As with all parks in the city, the local people are all engaged with sporting and cultural activities.It was refreshing stolling through the well maintained garden and watching the people busy with their activities.
Currently the Art Museum is featuring a special exhibition of Art to celebrate 60 years 'From Mao to Now'.Works of art representative of the ages, genre and themes are on display on five levels.
Then it was lunch at Yue Bin Restaurant,located 31 Cuihua Hutong opposite the main gates of the National Museum of Art. This is noted as Beijing's first privately owned restaurant after 1949. It offers family food at affordable prices in a simple setting. Highly recomended are the two dishes which are shown in the pictures. They are 'guota dofu he' (wok tofu boxes) and 'ganshao huang yu' (fried ellow croaker). All this for 76 yuan.
