backlane of the buzzing shenzhen


had the honor of visiting the sleepy, dirty, almost god forsaken backlane of shenzhen. the atmosphere is really contrasting. one end, you see all the skyscrapers, men in suits, louis vutton boutique etc. at the other end, you see picking up unfinished food from the rubbish bin, stuffing them into their mouth.
a cinema at the backlane of gang xia train station:


it reminded me of the cinema i went to when i was a kid. rats running around, people eating sunflower seeds and throwing the shells on the floor. movie of the day: the miserable life of a factory girl (loosely translated). i shall not go into detail how miserable the girl's life is... erm... haha... just let your imagination run while, all you dirty fellows! pay $0.80 and you can watch all the 4 shows showing on that day. for couples watching the show, this particular cinema offers "couple seat" as well.
