    In Xinjiang, it is not an uncommon sight to see men crowd around in small groups taking part in some kind of culinary sharing sessions. What I've noticed is that they were usually male dominated. As such, this young girl caught my immediate attention. She struck me as a non-conformist, someone who goes out of the way to satisfy her own curiosity and acquire more knowledge, even if it's unconventional. I find myself standing there, observing her learning intently, in absolute amazement. I wanted to give her a penny for her thought.: by priscilla_ong, Views[618]
         		 I chanced upon this bunch of kids along the back streets of Yarkand (Xinjiang, Western China) participating in what seems to be the most popular childhood activity in town. It requires a deck of round cards and the players' ability to toss each card against the ground perpendicularly so that it would bounce back up and override the opponent's card. Watching them in complete indulgence makes me realize; that games and fun take form in the simplest possible way, and does not always have to involve the latest electronic gadgets. Sometimes, it doesn't even matter what we do, as long as we have the right company.: by priscilla_ong, Views[911]
         		 These men are sacrificing their lives to make history. Centuries from now this temple will still be standing. People will appreciate the art these men created through Yugu’an Temple, forever immortalizing the “Change Dynasty”. : by yuguantemple-china, Views[203]
         		 Migrant workers leave their families behind to find work in the city. This man’s face appears to be painted with emotion as he looks out beyond. Perhaps he is lonely and missing his family, or feeling emptiness from monotonous work.: by yuguantemple-china, Views[200]
         		 Chinese construction workers use few machines. Putting the metal slabs in the truck required eight men’s strength. Their hard labor is creating a legacy for the future visitors of Yugu’an Temple.: by yuguantemple-china, Views[257]
     
    All big things are built by many small steps. This man has a key role in the foundations of the temple. His only job was to sift the grainy dirt, preparing a vital ingredient for this temple’s recipe.: by yuguantemple-china, Views[217]
         		 The skeletal rawness of Yugu’an Temple’s construction site in Qingdao, China is captivating.: by yuguantemple-china, Views[239]

         		 A peek into the life of a typical Uyghur family, in Xinjiang, Western China. It appears that bonding over a freshly sliced melon is an integral part of their culture. There is this great sense of intimacy that radiates from them, when you see them relishing the sweetness, in both the fruit as well as the kinship.: by priscilla_ong, Views[980]
         		 This is exactly how I was greeted on my first day of travel to Xinjiang, Western China. It was difficult to sit through the entire slaughter, although I must admit there is evidently an interest in the transitional process. It does make me look at my plate differently, and wish it has remained as a black box that mysteriously transforms animals into something edible. It's highly controversial; but something in the children's eyes tells me that the shocked look on my face must have been quite disturbing for them too.: by priscilla_ong, Views[488]
         		 Sometimes, after a lot of traveling via foot, it is so lovely to relax on a beautiful boat. This is what I did after venturing around China. Just me and my family and a variety of new people to meet and gourmet food to try. A lil bit of r'n'r in the most luxurious of ways.: by sianmercel, Views[538]
     
    I am in LOVE with ancient Chinese architecture. This building however is only a few decades old but is still so lovely. One thing I am unhappy about this shot is the air conditioning unit on the roof of the background building. If I had photoshop I would edit it out in a heartbeat. : by sianmercel, Views[719]
         		 On my travels around China, I was always impressed with the colourful sculptures hidden around the buildings. I only wish I could speak Chinese to find out what each one means.: by sianmercel, Views[454]
