Great Hall of the People

My roommate teaches English to a government official, so although the Great Hall of the People was closed, he gave us a private tour. This place is massive, and just as expected, it feels like a Communist government building. High ceilings, ornate decorations, extravagant chandeliers - only the best for the world's politicians. We went into a room called the "Gold Room" where Obama, Putin, Merkel, etc all come to meet and shake hands with the almighty Xi Jinping.
