As you can see Disney is also popular here (see hood of yellow car). During our travels we learned that there are 13million people in Beijing alone. There are 4 million drivers and each day about 1,600 more cars are registered. UNBELIEVABLE! They have to tell you which day you are allowed to drive your car according to the number on your license plate so that they can keep the traffic down a little. The strangely shaped building is the TV station. It was featured last month in Popular Science Magazine as an engineering marvel.
