Liuba Draws Beijing reveals glimpses of Beijing you don't see described in the classic travel quides. This illustrated memoir from Ljuba, a foreigner illustrator, is a collection of informative and humorous anecdotes representing the artist's personal perspective on life in Chinas capital.
Experience the Asian metropolis through full-page watercolor paintings with delightful scenes of the old maze-like streets contrasting with the modern city skyline, early bird street food vendors servicing commuters, a winter snowfall panorama of the Forbidden City and the Great Wall under the star filled skies, Witty comments and detailed watercolor illustrated stories take the reader on a journey with the author who questions if there really is a tofu lake and wonders if there could be a villain's lair located on the top floor of a Beijing skyscraper?
