Tuanjiehu Park, Beijing, China: January 20th, 2024
Follow David as he explores Tuanjiehu Park in Beijing. It sits just east of Sanlitun. On this January afternoon, locals can be found ice skating, playing badminton, practicing tai chi, and getting their steps in as they walk around the park’s various paths. This gallery includes photos taken along the Liangma River. Photos were taken with an iPhone and his FujiFilm X-T200, then edited with Adobe Lightroom.
