Street Scenes – Chongqing



More scenes from Chongqing: not sure what the lovely plaster-and-wood building was, but Steve and I saw it as we wandered the city. The chicken in the doorway, with clothes hanging on the line, was on one of the side stairways leading from the upper, more commercial part of the city down to the lower port area, where goods entering and leaving Chongqing by boat are warehoused and loaded onto or off ships. Steve displayed a marked fear of all chickens he saw while in China…and given that most chickens in China live, like this one, in fairly close proximity to many humans, this led on my part to occasional amusement I must admit. I certainly hope I never end up regretting my good humor on this point…
