In our past time on one of our evenings a group of us decided that it would be a great night to check out the Tianjin Radio and Television tower. It was a clear night with little smog and we got there just in time to see the sun set. All of us were amazed at how fast it set behind the mountains and Tianjin fazed into the night scene. I was worried that we were not going to make it to the top to watch the sun set because we were having quite a difficult time trying to communicate with the ticket teller that we wanted both the ticket up and meal. Once we got that figured out it was even harder to pick what we wanted to eat. It was unsuccessful and most of us paired up and split the ordering down the middle so that we would get one of everything to share between two people. This worked out well as one of the dishes turned out to be a full fish with skin intact. Even though the fished look fresh out of water it turned out to be pretty delicious, enough to the point where a couple tried the eye of the fish. The meal was successful and we got to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the city from the tallest TV tower in Tianjin. What surprised me was that it only cost 120 Yuan, that's less than $20 American dollars!
