"Swimming?" China

 
Chinese refer to the pools as a "boiling dumpling" do to the extreme overcrowding.  Limited facilities make pools packed and swimming a challenge.  The cost of running a pool is not profitable for many local governments.  Swimming is considered a symbol of strength in China, however everyday citizens have little access to public swimming pools.  Most Chinese pools are a place to cool off more than a place to enjoy a healthy swim.  During the heat of the day, public pools pack with people and their colorful floats.  Fortunately,  public pools are on the rise. The new Dead Sea Pool in Yao Stink China can accommodate 230,000 swimmers at one time...WOW.

  1. Ein Schwimmbecken oder Whirlpool im eigenen Garten ist für viele ein langgehegter Traum. Wer schon lange vom Badespaß vor der Terrassentür träumt, zudem seinen Kindern eine riesige Freude machen möchte, der sollte nicht mehr zögern, sondern sich einen Pool kaufen
    Pool kaufen

  4. Hey there would youu mind stating which blog platform you're using?
    I'm looking to start my own blog soon but I'm having a tough time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and
    Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design andd style seens different then most
    blogs and I'm looking for something unique. P.S
    My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!
