China's coast is the linchpin of the nation's economic development, and the farther inland you move in any given direction, the more bleak the picture tends to become. After having recently traveled to some of the grittier hinterland provinces, I returned this weekend to the more traditional tourist locales of Jiangsu and Zhejiang (Administrative Region #20), the homes of Nanjing and Hangzhou, respectively. The former offered a glimpse into some of China's Republican history, and the latter, repose.

All this hustle and bustle of travel to take pictures of other folks taking it easy, for a few hours or eternity. Still, thanks for sharing!
