Ms. Chen Chaying who lives in Shijiqing, was skipping in No.1 Park of Hubin besides West Lake yesterday with a long kipping-rope she bought at a cost of RMB10. Many of the tourists stopped to watch and some of them could not help joining her. One of the male tourists even took off his clothes and stripped to the waist as he felt hot after skipping for a while. Ms. Chen said she never expected to see so many people enjoy skipping.

Though groups of tourists kept coming and going from 1:00pm to 5:00pm yesterday afternoon, the feeling of happiness never stopped for a moment.
