Tangyue Memorial Archways. These archways depict stories of people who were especially virtuous. One story I found was about a father and son who got caught by the bad guys and each said that they would die if the other got to live. The bad guy was so impressed they both got to go. Another was for a step-mom who treated her step-son like her own son, even after her husband had died, and remained faithful to him. Thanks! CN-273114

A small block of stone
Taken at Qian Che Hutong

Pretty picture, though google doesn't help me with Qian Che Hutong. Is it the building, area, corner of two streets? I don't know... do you?

Thanks Flora! CN-241060

This is a Chinese image of 4 kids playing, it looks like with a kite. I'm not too sure what the yellow is - I see the webpage for China Post, and on the back it says Happy New Year. Any ideas?
Thanks Minhao! CN-167350

A tea pot made of white jade in the shape of a pumpkin. Isn't the white just amazing? I wonder how big it really is - it looks so small in the picture. Thanks Cheng Qing! CN-4317
