Concessions

Admittedly, my camera takes crap photos, but the prices here for a camera are about 150-200% of what US prices are, so I will wait for a better camera. I took a concession tour of Tianjin, which was a tour through the French, Italian, Austro-Hungarian, Japanese, German and British concessions. The photo depicted is obviously not one of the concessions. We ended at the Hongkong Club, which is (according to the guide) the largest traditional Chinese stage in China. He spoke for about 15 minutes on the intricacies of the decorations which you can't make out, but I thought it was cool. Interestingly enough, Tianjin had the most concessions in China.
