My Europe and more (Photos)

The most beautiful city I have been to. (Prague, Czech)

Isn’t it mysterious that France can be traditional and liberal at the same time? (Paris, France)

Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp is here. (Oswiecim, Poland)

Where did all these tourists come from just to see a ten minute show of the Buckingham Palace guards? (London, The U.K.)

A happy giraffe family who loves their beautiful home – no fences in the Berlin zoo! (Berlin, Germany)

An overpass between two buildings, which was destroyed by Allied firebombing during the Second World War, and which remains as a ruin. (Dresden, Germany)

The River Danube, which runs through many countries in Europe. (Budapest, Hungary)

Stars, old symbols of Communism, were removed from the building. (Sofia, Bulgaria)

Another triumphal arch. No, it’s not Paris but Romania! (Bucharest, Romania)

The most beautiful metro station in the world. (Moscow, Russia)

Russian people were selling their goods to make a living. It is strange that they have so much culture but so little to eat. (Moscow, Russia)

Only Muslim country I have been to so far. (Istanbul, Turkey)

Chinese people live in an old building, which was built and housed by Europeans during the colonial period. Perhaps no one may live like this there today as I have heard Shanghai has now become like New York City. I am not surprised because Shanghai was the most cosmopolitan city in the world before the Second World War. (Shanghai, China)

Rabbits and a young chicken in a small cage in front of a restaurant were waiting to be cooked. I remember that the young chicken could not lift up her head when I placed my finger into the cage and touched the head. Was this because the chicken was hungry or had no hope? (Hangzhou, China)

These cherry blossoms were given to the U.S. by the Japanese Government. (Washington, D.C., The U.S.)
