Once I started going through old photos for skylines I found I couldn’t stop. To keep the post a moderate length I put them into a slide show. These are all from China, but taken over several years and representing a variety of cities.

The Great Wall of China snakes along the skyline for many miles, this view is of the Mutianyu section, north of Beijing.
