Just inside the main entrance to People’s Park
This blog is dedicated to People’s Park, the Central Park of the East. It’s located downtown and Kristen and I have visited a few times with friends. It’s a fun way to get away from the concrete jungle and visit an area that has some natural beauty.
The park is hard to describe. It has a running/walking trail that takes you around the lake and is loaded with a mix of carnival games…
human hamster wheel on water
bumper cars…and during the winter, when the lake is frozen over, these bad boys glide on ice!
every park has to have a carousel!
father-son fishing for gold fish…although I think it’s catch and release! Really takes the fun out of it.
go-carts that don’t go!
and carnival foods…
largest cotton candy we have ever seen!
and random weird carnival type things…
confused?…scared?…we are too. Not sure what this is!
Snow white? Elsa? They tried 🙂
green space to practice your sweet yo-yo skills…
Plus if walking is not your thing, you can take a monorail around the lake. Caution…it’s more like a roller-coaster!
Kristen and I on the monorail. Pre-whip lash.
A couple of a pictures showing what the lake looks like in the winter. You never get to see this in Texas!
This picture was taken about a month ago.
In conclusion, People’s Park is yet another thing in China we both love, and are confused by.
Ta-ta for now!
