This is just a photo series showing some interesting, confusing and funny signs or books...essentially anything attempting to convey meaning in english words. These are from everywhere I have been so far, from Beijing and Xian to Yunnan Province.

China is rather good at making sure there are plenty of trash and recycle bins here (of course how well people follow the signs may be questionable). I was impressed that there was a place for batteries as well
