City of Lights in China

Jeremiah's point-and-shoot Nikon didn't quite do justice to the amazing light-up in Xiamen, which was one of the best that Jeremiah had seen in Asia and indeed in the world.  It was well-planned, well executed and not too tacky.  It gave a certain vibrancy to the place, but did not overwhelm like the lights in Hong Kong.  The nights in the inner lake area and on the shoreline were even prettier but alas Jeremiah did not have his camera with him then. 

Sometimes one really needs to visit China to fathom the progress of China.  

Watch out, Paris.
Even the Mac is tastefully lighted up


小吃街


Zhongshan Road, the premier shopping street

Lighted up like a night club, this is actually an upmarket seafood stall
