Description
On my first visit, I added to my bucket list to ride a bike around the ancient wall in Xi'an, China. Unfortunately the day reserved for the bike ride during a ten day visit a couple of years later it never stopped raining. Perhaps the third time will be the charm. All was not lost as walking, umbrella in hand, I captured a number of wet but wonderful reference pictures. This view contrasting the ancient city stone wall against the backdrop of high rise apartments is a favorite. The muted color softens the cityscape creating a dreamlike time lapse scene of Xi’an’s architecture over centuries. Evolutionary growth in stone, steel and concrete.
