Looking west to the Window of the World (世界之窗) from my friend’s apartment in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, China. It’s China Mainland’s second theme park after reform and opening up in 1979, and has about 130 reproductions of some of the most famous tourist attractions in the world squeezed into 48 hectares (118 acres). The 108 metre (354 ft) tall Eiffel Tower dominates the skyline and the sight of the Pyramids and the Taj Mahal all in proximity to each other are all part of the appeal of this theme park. #China #Shenzhen #Guangdong #ThemePark #AboveItAll #WorldOfTheWorld
