Day's End, Shílĭpù (十里堡) terminal, Beijing, 1983
十里堡, Shílĭpù, trolleybus terminal (lines 112 and 115).
(The "dictionary" pronunciation of 堡 is "băo," but local residents pronounce the terminal name as "Shílĭpù;" see below.)
East of central Beijing, in 朝阳路, Cháoyáng lù, looking east.
(Thank you to "todayhigh" and "doubleaf" for correcting the pronunciation of the terminal name. At 1983, seeing 十里堡, I "probably" would have said, "Jū-ri-something.")
