Reminds me of this picture, probably 600 yrs ago today, the chancellor of the Ming Dynasty also braved the heavy snow to go to court like this 🌨️
It snowed for the first time this year in Beijing!
Thanks to the photographer @ 石小满 for getting up early and taking these photos before going to work, so that we can see the snow for the first time.
So lovely

很早就听说过英国埋葬着五名中国北洋水师官兵，正好我现在的小镇离官兵墓所在的Newcastle市不到60英里，就跟朋友驱车来了，只花了一个多小时就到了，在一个墓园里叫St. John Cemetery，这五名官兵去英国接收巡洋舰时不幸客死他乡，我们去的时候感觉近期已有同胞来祭拜过，还摆放了很多中国航母的照片❤
