CN-P26b(MO)

This is the second postcard inside an envelope sent by Kirsti, thanks. This postcard shows part of the Lijiang Old Town (丽江古城). It is listed in UESCO World Heritage List under the name "Lijiang Old Town (丽江古城)". It is recorded that the city first established 800 years ago during Song Dynasty. This old town also known as Dayanzhen(大研镇). It has preserved many buildings of Nakhi people. It also famous for its orderly system of waterways and bridges too.













A 4 Pataca UNESCO stamp, Igreja da Sé (大堂), was used to send three postcards inside an envelope. It was sent from Macau TRADIC Letter Process and Delivery Centre 6 (澳門TRADIC郵政處理及派遞中心6) on 8.7.2009. A round tax seal was stamped indicating 1.00 Pataca of postage due. The 4.00 might be the ordinary rate for letter but in this case as it contains three postcards. However no tax was collected on my side.
