CHINA. Guangzhou, Guangdong. 1993. The changes that have occured over the past ten years in China, centered on Guangzhou, the Pearl River Delta, Shanghai and Beijing, have been tremendous. In fact, the Chinese themselves can hardly believe the changes. The urban skylines continue to change quickly, although one can often see vestiges of the past in places like restaurants and parks. The sight of old people enjoying a card game with their friends in the Guangzhou Cultural Park is perhaps typical. (Out of the East, #122) ©Hiroji Kubota/Magnum Photos
