Highway Rest Stop in China (photos)

I like the idea of sharing "boring" everyday photos of life in different parts of the world. The kind of photos where, if you live there, you feel like "I've seen this a million times, nobody could possibly find this interesting" and if you don't live there, you're like "Wow, cool, what's this? I've never seen this before!"

So anyway, here are some photos I took at some highway rest stops in China. Super boring stuff for me. But if you've never been to China, you've probably never seen this "boring" stuff before, so here it is.

(If y'all like this, I will try to do more posts like this.)

Sign inside a bathroom stall. It was a squat toilet, so that's what the "Take your time to rise" is about. (Literal translation of the Chinese 久蹲后请慢起 is "after squatting for a long time, please get up slowly." Good advice, don't want anyone falling down in the bathroom.) 






A stand where you can buy stinky tofu. That's literally what it's called. 臭豆腐

Scene from "Megamind" where Minion says "Code- I'll just pack my thing and go." I think about this every time I see a sign in China telling you to keep track of "your belonging." Image source.
