China's foreign affairs spokesperson Zhao Lijian tweeted this iconic photo. The driverless Fùxīng (Rejuvenation) high-speed train against a backdrop of China's timeless Great Wall.
One of the comments on that photo struck me as beautifully poetic.

北京冬奥列车与长城同框，古今在此交汇！！长城像黑色的巨龙，高铁是银色的巨龙，中华古今两巨龙在同一时空相遇，仿佛穿越到2000年前

Translation, courtesy Google Translate (I'm not at that level yet):
The Beijing Winter Olympics train is in the same frame as the Great Wall, where ancient and modern meet! ! The Great Wall is like a black dragon, and the high-speed rail is a silver dragon. The two ancient and modern Chinese dragons meet in the same time and space, as if traveling back to 2000 years ago.
