    An iPhone 5 was offered as a contest prize in August 2011. Even with no official news or release. Kind of funny. Seen in Beijing.

  • Some days ago I found this unused parking meter near a comercial area in Beijing. It was installed about 5 years ago, but for nothing. I was told that car owners didn’t know how to use it, and didn’t care about the whole thing. Now it stands as a testimony of the locals slipshod sense…

  • 360buy.com, commonly known as the Chinese equivalent to Amazon holds several brach offices across the country where you can go to get your online purchased items.
