RE: A Glimpse of China In 1988 - Restored Photos From My Dad's Journey Through China And A Snapshot of My Relationship With The Country

in #photography8 years ago

Your dad is such a brave explorer!!! China only started opening up their economy in 1979 so i would say that those photographs are very precious

My dad says thank you! He was a brave explorer, always going into places that foreigners weren't supposed to poke their noses into. He said China was still very closed when he went in the 80's and that many times foreigners were only allowed on a certain "tourist route" or could only stay at certain hotels (which he of course did not do lol)
