Yesterday my colleagues and I went to an acrobatics show in the Chaoyang Theater. The show combined acrobatics, artistical elements as well as acts based on sheer will- and horse-power :-). Some of it was breathtaking; other acts just crazy. Take a look at the picture gallery. The pictures are a bit blurry though, because I had to use my smartphone. There was a ‘no photography’ guidance in the theatre.

Even though China does not celebrate Easter we are lucky as we are going to have a three day weekend. Monday is ‘Tomb Sweeping Day’ in China which is similar to the Corpus Christi celebrations. People usually visit their families, and they commemorate their ancestors and loved ones who passed away.

Thus, I am getting ready for a long weekend and I am looking forward to some serious sightseeing.

Happy Easter and happy holidays from Beijing!
