This week’s photo theme is China Plaza Xmas: ostentatious Christmas mall displays in China’s mostly secular megacities.We kick off with some photos taken recently by Radii’s own Fan Shuhong. This globe-topped Christmas tree currently resides in the plaza of the Taikoo Li South mall in downtown Beijing, cutting a striking profile between the two other mega-malls across the street, Topwin Center and Sanlitun SOHO.The view from further in shows a seasonally-appropriate redding of the Apple store logo:There’s also another, arguably more traditional Christmas display at this mall’s sibling, the slightly more upscale Taikoo Li North:Stay tuned for more as the week progresses. It’ll get weirder.
