North Korean Strategy Game Gathering Wall Scroll

North Korean Strategy Game Gathering Wall Scroll close up view

Close up view of the artwork mounted to this silk brocade wall scroll

The gentlemen in this painting are wearing very traditional Korean clothing - depicting a time when Korea still had an emperor (and there was no such thing as North Korea or South Korea).

The men are playing an Asian game of strategy. It is a very complex game known as Baduk in Korean and Weiqi in Chinese. Sometimes it's called "Go" in the west, but this is not the simple 5-in-a-row game that most westerners are familier. The stategy in this game can only be compared to Chess, and games can last for hours.

Gary's random little facts about China:

I pee freely:
If you come to China, save your small change...
In Beijing, the government recently passed a law against charging money for using a public toilet.
However, in other cities and towns around China, expect to pay between 2-5 mao (about 3-5 cents) for the use.
Bring your own toilet paper, or expect to pay 5 mao for a small pack of tissue as you enter.

In my opinion, the best public toilet in all of China is at Tian'anmen Square.
This public restroom is not only clean, but also features its own gift shop.
