A day of commerce in Guangzhou


Guangzhou is one of the business hubs of southern China. Paul (Dr. Schempp) and I went into town today to do some shopping and site seeing. Here is what I think to be a typical Chinese shopping district. There was , however, a hint of Western to it.
Lots of people on bicycles- for both transportation and for business. See the herbs being sold-- puts different meaning on selling out of the "trunk of your car"

Covered textiles "mall" or area. Has a real flea market feel.

In the middle of all this commerce, we stumbled upon this temple area.
