Just wondering if any of our members could translate a couple of embroidered pictures i have, they both have Chinese writing on them.
Thank you
Mark
you can translate Chinese on line just google it
reading Chinese charactors
Ive been looking, i think i got the first one as Zhong, this is one of the images im trying to translate.

At least it's not a tattoo you're puzzled about.
You could try your local Chinese restaurant
haha crossed my mind! but i wouldnt do that lol

The first one looks like it's of the Bund in Shanghai. I think the Wirral Multicultural centre in Conway St has a translation service. Might be worth having a word with them. I know lots of Chinese people use the centre.
Well after using the Drawing tool on Google translate i get China Hangzhou , the rest is a bit difficult to get, i will keep trying till it makes more sense!

Got there!
China Hangzhou Dong fang hong Silk Weaving Factory (The East is Red)
Apparently it used to be called Dujingsheng Factory.

On the first picture, the writing on the right says "Shanghai Nanjing Road", which is the subject of the embroidery. I can't read the writing on the left as most is written in Simplified Chinese.
Thanks Guys!
It looks like its been done from this image.. Possibly 1949
People's Park and Nanjing Road
