Forbidden city pic is a little bit unusual choice...only b/c it's a major site not likely to be threatened, versus what the article actually discusses is the back alleys (hu tong) and courtyard--but I'm not criticizing since it was probably the only photo easily accessible. 70.57.139.181 08:13, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I'll see what else I can dig up. — DV 08:28, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Beijing City Wall Remnant
Here's another photo, of a spot called "Beijing City Wall Remnant". I don't know if this qualifies as part of "old Beijing" but it appears to be a historical artifact that is being preserved amidst an urban city backdrop, so perhaps it falls under this ruling? — DV 10:03, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)
I went ahead and addded "Beijing City Wall Remnant" as a second photo. Re-reading the article, the new regulations appear to cover such locations. The two photos make for an interesting contrast juxtaposed against one another. — DV 10:07, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)
