CCC-Chinese New Year Village Tour

The CCC arranged a tour to a rural village outside Beijing on February 9, 2008. The arrival of 4 busloads of visitors was greeted initially by strings of firecrackers and loud high-altitude firework salutes.

Stiltwalkers and dancers followed the fireworks.

Although many local residents turned out to watch the festivities, it seemed at times as if we visitors greatly outnumbered the local citizens.
