On the weekend I went of a trip tp Quzhou 衢州 & Da Tou 大头.
Below are pictures of the fun we had.
Please post comments.
Quzhou (pronounced "Chew Zoe") is a city in Zhejiang, and Da Tou is a village in Quzhou municipality. Da Tou litteraly translates as "Big Head".

Before I left, I ate the closest thing to a kebab in China. They're fifty cents each, and delicious. They have pork inside.
