Chinatown 4

Now that I have my Moderna shots I can travel further afar again.  Yippee.  


I had gotten a bit bored with the hood.  


And, all sorts of interesting places lie in the distance accessible by subway needing to be explored. 


But first my promised trip to Chinatown.  


Actually I am there fairly often because I take a variety of Chinese herbs to keep myself healthy.  


So I was pleased to be able to resume my trips.  


This time I brought my good camera so I could capture "Rice Terraces."  


It is a 4851 square feet mural on Doyers Street between Pell & Bowery.  It was painted by Dasic Fernandez and is scheduled to be visible through next May - weather permitting.  What do you think that means?  If it snows they won't clear it off?


Here is an article about it...

It really is quite pretty.  But I think I enjoyed the hanging lanterns more.  I'll bet they are really lovely at night.  I may have to check it out at some point.


 

Here are some previous blogs from Chinatown...
