Snow In Beijing



This is the first time in my life to see natural snow. According to local people in Beijing, this will be the coldest winter since the last 10 years.


This is taken at the main entrance of the hotel I was staying. Out door temperature was about -8 to -12 degree celsious.


Normally when snow, some people will not drive in the city, because it can be quite dangerous is they drive. Especially it was an unexpected snow, most people were not ready.


This was taken from the office. It was not a heavy snow, as such it looks a bit hazy only. But actually it was snowing when I take this photo. The river along the street was covering with snow.

Mosque in Deira City, Dubai








Mosque in Diera City, Dubai. This mosque is at the center of Diera City, it is quite unique. Each Friday, there are many muslims come here for their week-end prayer.

I walk by this mosque many times, which is normally from the office (Al Serkal Bulding) to the Deira City Shopping Center.
