Zhenjiang

Zhenjiang, Jiangsu, China
Saturday, September 7, 1985

I took a short train ride to Zhenjiang. My cousin Xinmei took me on a tour of the historic sites: Jinshan, Jiaoshan, and Beigushan. These are beautiful hills full of historic buildings right on the shores of the Yangtze River. Beigushan was the location of intrigue in the Three Kingdoms era (1700 years ago), and Jinshan was the locale of the fairy tale White Snake Princess.
