Description
This was the view from our window room 2102 in the JW Marriot, Yuzhong District of Chongqing China.
I was facinated by the roof top court yards that seemed to be all over, as well as the modern sky scrapers rising beside buildings that looked hundreds of years old. This was also the city where I began my friendship with china because the people were amazing.
This trip took place a year and a half ago, the weather was pretty nasty. I took 12 rolls of film and a lot of the photos got housed by post 9/11 security x-ray measures.
