Looks like a nice neighborhood.  I see that your apartment is as colorful inside as it is outside.  I hope noise from the nightclub doesn't keep you awake at night.

The noise isn't too bad, you can pretend the music is the general hum of the city. It's when they do karaoke over the club's p.a that the sound seems to travel!  bibibibibi

Lovely pictures Nato. Do you have a special setting on your camera for the panoramic photos?

Thanks, Mlauex. Yeah you can take up to three photo's together. The edge of the previous photo will show on the screen, but slightly opaque - it makes it easy to line the next photo up. It's probably my favourite setting.

Lovely pictures!

I missed out on Chengdu when I was there last time.  The red pandas are gorgeous and I love the colours you've captured - especially on your couch!  ahahahahah

Ha that's my old couch, I have moved now on account of the noise at that gaff. My new couch is nowhere near as metrosexual.
