Had about 6 hours in Zhangjiang and we went to the old part of town near the sea front. Zhanjiang had been invaded by the French some years ago and there are still a few reminders.Many of the old buildings are very beautiful but desperately run down. If they were restored the town would look really pretty. We had a simple meal and were disappointed to get ripped of by paying double what it should have cost. On the way back to the train station we passed Chinese opera performers who played just next to a main road. I tried to take some photos of the actors and they were more than happy to pose. As it was dark and my camera couldn't take any good shots (flash not working) I ended up back stage to take some pictures in the light. I took pictures of them and they took pictures of me.Watched the Opera for a while before heading back to catch the overnight train to Guilin.
