Shenyang 

Five stone sacrificial vessels in front of the Soul Tower

As we walk deeper into the mausoleum, we can feel the real essence of the tomb鈥quiet and solitude.

Retaining Wall is the name of this structure, a semicircular bastion銆

Next to Huang temple, there is a square with stone structures of the 12 emperors. Each one is sculpted meticulously.

So now that we鈥檝e seen the emperor鈥檚 tomb, let鈥檚 take a look at the emperors. Well, the closest we can get is the statues. And there seems to be a person taking pictures. Let鈥檚 go take a look.

Here, I met my friend Alain, a Frenchman who unlike most foreigners who chose to reside in Beijing or Shanghai, has been in Shenyang for many years.

Why did I come to Shenyang? Very simple. I am a Frenchman, I have been teaching French in Shenyang four years. Shenyang is an ancient, mysterious, passionate city. Here, you will discover Manchu myths and 12 Qing emperors. There is the Imperial Palace, North and East Tombs, and temples. Also, if you come to Shenyang, you will find welcoming locals, even in restaurants. If you come to China, don鈥檛 forget Shenyang. See you!

Shenyang is a city that beautifully combines the old and the new. It is also a dynamically changing city, from the past to the present. Who knows what it will be like in the future. This is Yin saying, enjoy every moment, every second, every hour, every year. Until next time!
