Securing Tien An Men Square

I was on Tien An Men Square on June 5. That day was the 24th anniversary of the Student Uprisings on the square. It being my first time to the square, I did not know whether security was stepped up or not.




The entrance to Chairman Mao's Tomb was blocked off.

There were security cameras everywhere (but it appeared to me that they were permanent fixtures).
