I like the balanced composition created by framing the four figures. Nicely done.

What are they playing?

Some kind of Chinese chess. Commonly seen all over Beijing.
Although, I feel not quite as commonly as on my previous trips in 2010-2011.

The old guy is a smoker I assume cause I see cigarettes.

I see a pack and a lighter, so I guess that's safe to assume.

Thank you! Looking at my pics might get expensive!Β 

It's my third trip. This time for the sole purpose of doing street photography.
June wasn't a good choice though, too hot - at least for me.
September and early October is the best time, climate wise.

Being third times in China must be something that not lots of people can do . (:

I travel a lot. I hope to go again, someday. And maybe also see other parts of China.
Going there is actually relatively cheap, compared to Europe and the US, for example.

Usually I dont look how people are dressed but it seems to me I see more and more people in the street who fly to China for their clothes and shoes.

Well, China is the factory of the world. Even though countries such as Vietnam and Bangladesh are competing especially in the garment business.
So if you get a cheap flight and a cheap room, you can find a whole new wardrobe here and save money compared to European prices.
That is especially true if you are at least slightly smaller than me, at 191 cm and 100+ kilos.

In Beijing, people are generally very well fed and dressed. Though not as stylish as in, for example, Japan.

They have a good take back record. They are short for opening country specific sites in Europe, The Netherlands is a test field nl.aliexpress.com/ but is bugs just with all net orders that you lose time.
