In Kaifeng

. . . cosplay is very popular.



. . . real women wear six-inch heels when they cross steep, uneven wooden bridges. In the rain.


(This is the bridge)


. . . there's lots to eat


(warm polenta with dried fruit slices)


(soup-filled dumplings)


. . . your soul can be weighed (and found wanting)


. . . statues play chess


. . . you can get a lot of inspiration for the next water feature you install in your yard



. . . there seem to be a lot of Hakka running around


(Hakka were a nomadic group in China--stereotyped as having ugly women, because they didn't practice foot-binding).
