City Wall Walk

Before taking the train back to Chongqing on Sunday morning, we walked part of the city wall.  The wall is almost 40 ft tall, 45 feet wide, and there are towers every 400 feet for a total of 98 around the city.  Had the weather cooperated, we could have biked the 8+ miles, but since it was only 28 degrees, we opted to bundle up and do a brisk walk of part of the structure. As we walked, the sun came out, warming us up. We even saw our shadow!  Bob timed our entrance and exit such that we ended up back in our favorite food area - the Muslim Quarters. It was enjoyable to see the city from above, such a mix of ancient and modern.











Hmmm???









Again, who would need to be told this?
