ABOUT WANZHOU

Wanzhou sits between the Taibai Mountains and the Yangtze River. There are a lot of hills and winding roads much like Pittsburgh. Shops line every street and on top of the shops are usually apartments. The modes of transportation are buses and taxis as many people do not own cars.







Another thing like Pittsburgh, a chair sitting at the curb to save a parking space for someone who does own a car.

There are very many old buildings here.  They all seem to have balconies or at least bars around the windows. Most hang their clothes out to dry or store things here. So many have some type of plant or tree growing  also.  The people who have an apartment on the top floor get the roof too. They will have trees and plants there and also use that as a place to hang their clothes.  The pictures with the bars are taken looking out of the windows in CJ's apartment.

 

Tucked in between some of the buildings are more and  more steps that take you from one street to the other. These are also filled with shops on each side.

The Yangtze River at night and the one in the day time is looking out the window at CJ's new apartment.
