Download or read book The Last Days of Old Beijing written by Michael Meyer and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-07-23 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journalist Michael Meyer has spent his adult life in China, first in a small village as a Peace Corps volunteer, the last decade in Beijing--where he has witnessed the extraordinary transformation the country has experienced in that time. For the past two years he has been completely immersed in the ancient city, living on one of its famed hutong in a century-old courtyard home he shares with several families, teaching English at a local elementary school--while all around him "progress" closes in as the neighborhood is methodically destroyed to make way for high-rise buildings, shopping malls, and other symbols of modern, urban life. The city, he shows, has been demolished many times before; however, he writes, "the epitaph for Beijing will read: born 1280, died 2008...what emperors, warlords, Japanese invaders, and Communist planners couldn't eradicate, the market economy can." The Last Days of Old Beijing tells the story of this historic city from the inside out-through the eyes of those whose lives are in the balance: the Widow who takes care of Meyer; his students and fellow teachers, the first-ever description of what goes on in a Chinese public school; the local historian who rallies against the government. The tension of preservation vs. modernization--the question of what, in an ancient civilization, counts as heritage, and what happens when a billion people want to live the way Americans do--suffuse Meyer's story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beijing, the bustling capital of China, is a city where ancient history and modern life blend seamlessly. Walking through its streets feels like flipping through the pages of a history book while simultaneously stepping into the future. From the ancient palaces to the sleek skyscrapers, Beijing offers a unique experience that’s hard to match. The city is home to over 21 million people, making it one of the most populous cities in the world. Despite its size, Beijing manages to maintain a balance between its historical charm and contemporary vibes. The famous Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City stand as testaments to its rich past, while the vibrant art districts and tech hubs highlight its modern edge. One thing that strikes visitors is how deeply rooted Beijing's culture is in everyday life. Traditional tea houses, bustling markets, and serene temples are scattered throughout the city, providing a glimpse into a way of life that has been preserved for centuries. Yet, at the same time, you’ll find trendy cafes, high-end restaurants, and shopping malls that cater to a more contemporary taste. Beijing's climate is another interesting aspect of the city. The summers are hot and humid, while the winters can be quite cold and dry. Spring and autumn, though, are perfect for exploring the city, with mild temperatures and clear skies. The city's air quality has been a concern in the past, but significant efforts have been made to improve it, and it's much better than it used to be. Food is an integral part of Beijing's identity. From the famous Peking duck to the street food stalls selling jianbing (a type of Chinese crepe), the city is a paradise for food lovers. The variety of flavors, spices, and cooking techniques reflects the diversity of Chinese cuisine, making every meal an adventure. Beijing is also a city of contrasts. On one hand, you have the ancient hutongs (narrow alleys) where life seems to have remained unchanged for decades. On the other, you have the ultra-modern neighborhoods with cutting-edge architecture and technology. This juxtaposition is what makes Beijing so fascinating and unique. The city is also a major hub for culture and arts. The National Centre for the Performing Arts, with its futuristic design, hosts world-class performances, while the 798 Art District is a haven for contemporary art lovers. Museums, galleries, and theaters are plentiful, offering a deep dive into both traditional and modern Chinese culture. Sports enthusiasts will also find plenty to enjoy in Beijing. The city hosted the 2008 Summer Olympics, and the impressive Olympic Park is still a popular attraction. Whether you’re into martial arts, basketball, or even winter sports, there’s something for everyone. Beijing's transportation system is extensive and efficient. The subway network is one of the largest in the world, making it easy to navigate the city. Buses, taxis, and bike-sharing services are also widely available, so getting around is convenient. All in all, Beijing is a city that captivates visitors with its rich history, vibrant culture, and dynamic energy. It’s a place where you can lose yourself in ancient traditions one moment and find yourself in the heart of modern innovation the next. Whether you’re a history buff, a foodie, or just someone looking for a unique travel experience, Beijing has something for everyone.

Book excerpt: If you've ever dreamed of casting off your worldly possessions and traveling to your heart's content, this story about two intrepid seniors will inspire you no matter your age. Michael and Debbie Campbell felt they had one more adventure in them before considering retirement in the traditional sense, so they filled two rolling duffel bags with life's essentials (including their own pillows) and hit the road. Three years later, having sold their home in Seattle, their "Senior Nomad" lifestyle has no end in sight. Ride along as they share tales of living full-time in Airbnbs in over 50 countries and pay tribute to the many hosts who not only helped them live daily life, but also offered unique opportunities to experience their cities. From the barber's chair in Dublin and the dentist's chair in Split, to a wild motorcycle ride in Athens, a peek behind the Soviet Curtain in Transnistria, and the demise of a chicken for dinner in Marrakech, hosts made the Campbell's dream of adventure come true. Discover how Debbie and Michael find their next Airbnb, how they get there, and the many ways they enjoy their new city just as the locals do. Learn their tips and tricks for using Airbnb and how they get the most out of each stay, all while spending little more than they would have spent settled into their rocking chairs in Seattle.
