10) Go to the Purple Mountain and see the mausoleum to Sun Yet Sen. Not all that strange until you get crowded into a tiny room with a hundred people and shuffle in a circle around the coffin.
9) Check out the insanely crowded Fuzi Miao. You will never get more than a foot of personal space. But they do have a great selection of men's clothing.
8) Get bubble tea. Except it is like a fruit cocktail. Be prepared to suck noodles through a straw with you tea.
7) Check out the amphitheater at the Purple Mountain. I played some music and was then lucky enough to have a Chinese man show me what it was really made for and recite poetry in a booming voice.
6) Watch Kung Fu Panda.
5) Go to the center of the Fuzi Miao and watch a mascot celebration. 15 mascots, a tiger, a bunny, a turtle, a cow, pretty much all you can think of leading a congo line. All this surrounded by an enormous group of stoic people who look as if they are watch a ballet.
4) Debate the authenticity of an enormous piece of petrified wood and a crowded shop.
3) Watch Kung Fu Panda again.
2) Catch an amazing Chinese band with matching plaid pants and hawaiian shirts and a rotating cast of singers. All held down by Mel, the best Chinese bass player in the Universe.
1) Get in a taxi, hold on tight and get ready for a wild ride!
