Massive functional buildings made entirely of ice and filled with lights!
another good reason to go to China. R Todd King: China Photos 2005 - Harbin Winter |

There are just two things to know about Li. First, he grew up in a poor farming community. This makes him hungry. Second, he comes from Zhejiang, China's heart of capitalism. Zhejiang entrepreneurs are bold beyond words. They scare even the savvy Shanghai business people.
Yes Virginia, the Chinese threat is real. Nothing less than a revolution will do |
