New piece from the stamp exchange with China

Early this year I exchanged a few stamps with one collector from China and nicely stamped cover is always a good bonus. For this postal matter are used four stamps:

The biggest one on the left is from set with the theme of Mount Huangshan, romantic scenery with rocks above the clouds. The zones of Mt. Huangshan cover an area of about 154 square kilometres and you can find there many brooks, rivers, peaks and twelve caves. Often is this area described as the place of four sights: legendary pine trees, strange-shaped rocks, sea of clouds and hot springs.

Next stamp supports China's National Tourism Administration and invites the tourists to China. After all, it's written on the backbround of this stamp - Visit China.

Third stamp displays the original site of Directorate of Posts of China Soviet Republic. It's from the set of four postal buildings issued in 1996 and commemorates the progress of postal service in China.

And last stamp? I identified some dock, but why is in the left top corner the logo of Summer Olympic Games in Peking (Beijing) in 2008, is it all right? Of course it is, because on the picture is Qingdao Olympic Sailing Center, one of the Olympic sports facilities on Chinese stamps.

Thanks to Huang, you can look at his blog on http://stampsland.blogspot.com
