The evening was spent with a quick stop at Tiannamen Square. There's not much to say about the square other than it's very large and popular with tourists both from the rest of China and beyond.

They make a big deal of raising and lowering the flag at sunrise and sunset, which attracts a crowd. It was still quite early and they were already gathering.

At no point did I pose with 2 carrier bags.

After the square we then went to the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner (because Martin is a Hard Rock Ho as much as a coaster one Dinner wasn't the best and we noticed how the restaurant was over-staffed. Something we'd come to notice a lot in Beijing.
