The word sidewalk has two operative parts; side and walk. This concept is somewhat foreign to some Chinese as depicted in this photo. It was taken in front of Hotel Nikko in downtown Tianjin. On the other side of the dark van which is parked on the sidewalk sits four large plants that obstruct pedestrians from using the sidewalk. This forces all pedestrian traffic to use the road, which slows down vehicular traffic and causes a back-up every morning during rush hour.
