A city of 20 million people
Beijing moves faster than time
If this is your first visit
Then open your senses
To things that are best experienced than explained.
The opium wars long forgotten
Red guards of the revolution have shown a touch of grey
Old hutongs fall to give away to the new frontiers
Without religion, without democracy, it moves forward
Constant and smooth, the power of inertia is stronger than the foreign wall.
